Abstract
Overview
This market report provides a comprehensive overview of the Internet segment
of the market across the various economies of Asia. The overview naturally
includes a look at the broadband segment within these markets.
Executive Summary
While there is considerable activity in the Internet and online markets across
the region, the market in Asia continues to be dominated by the big players of
North Asia, (South Korea, Japan, Hong Kong, etc), with a significant role also
being played by some of the South East Asian countries (Singapore, Malaysia,
etc). Of course, in terms of sheer Internet user numbers, China (300 million)
and India (95 million) maintain a real presence, despite their modest user
penetration figures. Notably, China surpassed the US in 2008 to become the
largest nation of Internet users in the world and by end 2009 was showing no
signs of slowing down.
In fact as highlighted in the table below, the Asian Internet market can be
broken into three user penetration groups. The top group includes the more
highly penetrated markets in terms of users and subscribers. They also tend to
have sophisticated and extensive broadband access facilities in place.
Typically we find that countries from this group are among the global leaders
in broadband Internet. South Korea, with a user penetration of over 77%, leads
the regional market with a broadband subscriber penetration of 32%. Closely
following in second place is Hong Kong with a 75% user penetration and 28%
broadband subscriber penetration. The countries in this top grouping are
characterised by their start of the art national infrastructure and, most
importantly, strong regulatory support for expansion of telecom and IT
services.
The countries in the second band - roughly between 10% and 30% user
penetration - are to be found in expansion mode when it comes to their
Internet market segments. But there is a clear gap (almost 20%) to be bridged
before they can be counted in the top grouping. China has jumped from 16%
penetration in 2007 to 23% by mid-2009; however, its broadband penetration is
still languishing around the 5% mark. Thailand and Vietnam (both with 26% user
penetration) play lead roles in this middle grouping. We typically find that
in the last few years both operators and governments have started to give
priority to expanding Internet access and speed in these countries. Indonesia
has moved strongly into this group, overcoming major infrastructure challenges
to provide Internet to its citizens; its 14% penetration represents a very
significant 33 million users.
In the third grouping - those markets with a user penetration of less than 10%
- we tend to find those countries that, for whatever reason, have not yet
‘got their act together’ when it comes to Internet. Of course,
some are performing relatively well under difficult circumstances. The
war-ravaged Afghanistan is managing 2% user penetration under extremely
difficult circumstances. Then there is the tiny fledgling nation of Timor
Leste (East Timor), which has continued to struggle with political instability
as it attempts to build its national infrastructure. At the bottom end of the
Internet scale in Asia, however, we find a number of countries that are simply
struggling with poor telecom infrastructure and generally underdeveloped
regulatory regimes. Included amongst these are Nepal, Turkmenistan, Cambodia,
Tajikistan, Bangladesh and Myanmar.
