As the Domestic Market in Singapore is Small, the Country Aspires to Being the Technological and Telecommunications Centre of the Whole Southeast Asian Region.

DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c35458) has announced the addition of Telecommunications in Singapore to their offering.

This Study has been published for those companies requiring an in-depth report describing the current state of the telecommunications industry in Singapore.

Singapore is one of the leading economies in the Asia-Pacific region. Along with Hong Kong, Taiwan and South Korea, its economic development in the 1980s and 1990s caught the attention of the world. Today it has a per capita GDP that exceeds that of most countries outside the US.

Singapore has become a world leader in the development and use of Information and Communications Technology (which it now generally refers to as 'Infocomm'). This is primarily the result of a comprehensive and sustained effort by the government to change the country into a leading Infocomm-based knowledge centre.

The country's telecom infrastructure is one of the most advanced in the world. The basic network was fully digitalised some time ago, and various advanced services have been introduced progressively since then.

The government's telecom policy is designed to establish and maintain the country as a regional and global Infocomm centre. It encourages the rapid adoption and widespread use of Infocomm services, with the objective of making Singapore the innovation and knowledge centre in the region.
