most expensive state-of-the-art ecommerce website.
E-commerce is its potential threat to the security of
consumers' personal information.

To make ecommerce successful in our country we need the help of all
aspect of people as well as govt. and business industry to cope up or
overcome the following limitations
Access to computer of household should be increased
The cost of using internet should be affordable to general people
User of software should be more simple for the easier use
Its use should be made as easy as TV and newspaper so that it require
unsophisticated skill
23. CONCLUSION
The application and use of E-commerce is limited
in Bangladesh. This sector is not so much develop
in our country. The reason behind are many but
the main reason is that our country is not so
developed and most people of our country are poor
and uneducated. So it is natural that there are few
customers who are interested in E-commerce. But
this situation can possibly be changed if we
develop our telecommunication infrastructure,
government awareness and people mindset.
