Research and Markets: A Comprehensive look at the Malaysian Broadband MarketDublin, May 06, 2010 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/8bacae/malaysia_broadba) has announced the addition of the "Malaysia - Broadband Market" report to their offering. Malaysia continues to heavily promote itself as an Information Technology hub in the Asia region. On the back of the Multimedia Super Corridor project, it is true that high-tech companies have at least been establishing a presence in Malaysia. But for some time the wider community was not really embracing technology. In relative terms, there had been a surprisingly low interest in broadband Internet. The national broadband penetration was around 9% by end-2009. This was despite the government having launched a National Broadband Plan which was targeting 15% penetration by 2010. One of the bright spots has been WiFi, as the service providers start to roll out their hotspot services. And now that the government has issued some WiMAX licences, this platform is something that will be watched with interest. Another major push towards wider broadband adoption will be evident as Telekom Malaysias roll-out of its High Speed Broadband (HSBB) network proceeds over the next few years. This report looks at the extent to which high-speed Internet access is developing in the country. Key Topics Covered: 1. Synopsis 2.
