"Taiwan has been very progressive in its efforts to liberalise the
telecommunications industry and to create a positive regulatory regime.
Despite the odd bout of bureaucratic bickering, structural reforms have
been achieved. At the same time, Taiwan's telecommunication
infrastructure has been upgraded significantly, undergoing a series of
network modernisation projects over the last decade or so.
Internet growth has been phenomenal in Taiwan. The proportion of the
population who are Internet users has exceeded 65%. Some 80% of all
homes in Taiwan own PCs and around 70% of homes have Internet
connections. The market has moved rapidly away from dial-up access to
broadband, mainly on DSL subscriptions, and over 60% of all Internet
connections are broadband. The government has committed the country to
being on a par with the US by 2010. Going into 2008 broadband
penetration had been lifted to over 20%. There are a large number of
ISPs, although a handful of big ones continue to dominate the market.
For more information, see chapter 6.1, page 32.
Taiwan's mobile market has been a remarkable phenomenon. By early 2002,
the country had reached the milestone of one mobile service for every
person on the island. After peaking at a penetration of 114% in late
2003, the penetration was sitting at around 105% going into 2008.
Consistent with the performance of its impressive mobile sector, Taiwan
moved energetically into the next generation' of mobile services.
Following the awarding of five licences for 3G services in 2002, one of
the new licensees, APBW, launched its CDMA2000 1x service in 2003. The
market newcomer passed the one million subscribers' milestone in late
2006, having grown fivefold in just three years. Three other 3G
licensees launched their 3G services in 2005 and now account for nearly
15% of the total mobile subscriber base.
