NGN policies in Asia-Pacific: bold move or wishful thinking?

Introduction

In recent years several Asian countries have launched policies to promote investment in NGN access. These policies have involved significant government leadership and funding. What approaches have been adopted, and what issues remain to be addressed? In recent months, national governments in Singapore, Australia and New Zealand have announced significant interventions in their telecoms infrastructure markets designed to promote fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) investment. In each case this has involved large commitments of taxpayer funding.

This is a contrast to the more incremental and localised approaches typical in European markets, the strongly private-sector-led approaches of North America, and the less transparent government support provided in Korea and Japan. It is reasonable to ask whether these new initiatives reflect an alternative policy model, or simply the idiosyncratic industry and political features of these three markets.
