Developing countries falling into 'broadband gap'
Ola Al-Ghazawy

Much of the developing world is falling behind with broadband access
Flickr/abbesses

[CAIRO] Limited access to broadband Internet is crippling the
spread of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in the
developing world and widening the already significant digital divide, a
report has warned.
Bandwidth availability is low and the cost of broadband
Internet is high in many developing countries, says 'Information
Economy Report 2009', released last week (22 October) by the UN
Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD).
Prices can reach more than US$1,000 per month in countries
such as Burkina Faso and Kazakhstan. Australia, a country with little
more than 20 million residents, has more broadband users than the whole
of the African continent.
This broadband gap deprives developing country
businesses of economic development opportunities such as call centres
and offshore offices.
"Broadband access is almost a must for companies with
international branches," Ahmed Ali, a software engineer at computing
giant IBM's Egypt branch, told SciDev.Net.
While major companies such as his use a satellite Internet
connection, smaller companies that provide offshore services for
businesses in other regions need a fast communication channel. 
"If broadband is not sufficient then it will be a problem for them and may hinder progress of their work," he says. 
But the mobile phone market is booming in the
developing world despite the economic crisis, the report found. Mobile
phone penetration reached 100 per cent in countries such as Bahrain,
South Africa and Qatar. Growth in mobile use increased more than
eightfold in less than ten years.
Mobiles are becoming the preferred mode of communication over landlines and are increasingly fulfilling ICT needs. 
"We now see three and four mobile service
providers opening up in these countries to fill demand. For many
people, it is becoming an important tool for business as well as
accessing the Internet," Ahmed Momtaz, a telecommunication engineer at
Vodafone Egypt, told SciDev.Net.
The report suggests governments can work with Internet providers to narrow the broadband gap by 
promoting competition to bring down prices and the sharing of
infrastructure to reduce costs by preventing duplicate efforts.
Governments can also promote Internet centres to offer access to people
in poorer regions. 
The UNCTAD report also calls for the expansion of underwater fibre optics network, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa. 




UNCTAD/PRESS/PR/2009/055
22/10/09    

Report warns of widening broadband divide but sees strong mobile phone growth despite economic crisis



EMBARGO

The contents of this press release and the related Report must not be quoted or 

summarized in the print, broadcast or electronic 

media before 22 October 2009,17:00 [GMT]

(13:00 New York; 19:00 Geneva, 22:30 New Delhi, 020:00 - 23 October Tokyo)

Geneva, 22 October 2009 - Greater efforts are needed to narrow the broadband divide, UNCTAD says in its Information Economy Report 2009: Trends and Outlook in Turbulent Times (1).
The rapid spread of information and communication technologies (ICTs)
around the world, especially mobile phones, is beating the expectations
of most experts. Mobile telecommunications also appear to be weathering
the crisis relatively well. But there is a widening gap between the
developed and developing worlds in the availability of broadband
Internet. A person in a developed country is 8 times more likely to be
a broadband user than someone in a developing country. 

Digital inequality is shrinking, but gap varies by type of ICT

While fixed telephone subscriptions are now in slight decline,
mobile and Internet use continues to expand rapidly in most countries
and regions.

Comparing the diffusion of the different ICTs with the distribution
of income in the world shows that mobile telephony has become the most
equitably distributed ICT. At the end of 2008, there were about 4
billion mobile subscriptions worldwide. In many developed, developing
and transition economies, mobile penetration now exceeds 100
subscriptions per 100 inhabitants. The penetration level in developing
countries is now eight times higher than what it was at the turn of the
century. The least developed countries raised their mobile penetration
from 2 per 100 inhabitants in 2003 to 20 in 2008. According to the new
UNCTAD report, between 2003 and 2008, the most dynamic economies in
terms of increased mobile penetration were Montenegro, Qatar, Bahrain,
and the Maldives, a least developed country (LDC) (chart 1). 

In the case of Internet use, more than half of the developed world
population is now online, compared to only 15% in developing countries.
The greatest improvements in Internet penetration since 2003 were
achieved in Andorra, Argentina, Latvia, and Colombia (chart 2). 
The digital divide is particularly pronounced in the case of
broadband. For example, Australia, a country with 21 million
inhabitants, has more broadband subscribers than the whole of Africa.
Average penetration in developed countries was more than eight times
higher than in developing countries. Moreover, a person in a developed
country is on average 200 times more likely than someone in a least
developed country to enjoy high-speed access to the Internet.

"There is still a long way to go before we can claim to have
significantly narrowed the "digital divide" to achieve an information
society for all. Wide gaps in ICT infrastructure remain, not least in
the case of broadband networks," UN Secretary-General, Ban Ki-moon says
in the preface to the report.

The broadband divide is aggravated by smaller bandwidths and higher
costs in developing than in developed economies. However, the fastest
growing broadband markets are found in large emerging economies. China
has already emerged as the world?s single largest broadband market,
followed by the United States. During the period 2003-2008, the Nordic
countries achieved the highest growth in fixed broadband penetration.
The fact that no developing or transition economy reached the top 20
list is a vivid illustration of the widening gap in this area.

How to narrow the broadband divide?

Improved broadband connectivity can help to achieve various economic
and social development objectives, and governments play a critical role
by setting the terms for broadband roll-out. The UNCTAD report
suggests, for example, that operators should be encouraged to share
backbone infrastructure to avoid duplicative and fragmented low
bandwidth networks. To ensure sufficient supply at reasonable prices,
governments also need to ensure that operators are exposed to
competition. To achieve more widespread deployment of broadband
backbones and access networks in remote and sparsely populated areas,
governments can make use of universal access service funds and can
promote the establishment of public Internet access points or
telecentres. 

For international broadband access, countries have to connect with
undersea cable projects and, for landlocked countries, build out fibre
links to submarine cable landing stations in other countries. One
region that has been largely excluded from the mesh of undersea fibre
optic cables is sub-Saharan Africa, which has the world?s lowest level
of international Internet bandwidth per capita. As of mid 2009, there
were only two intra-continental undersea cables to this region: SAT-3
(running up the African west coast) and SEACOM (since July 2009 linking
East African countries with Europe and India). Several other
initiatives are under way, however.

Mixed impacts of economic crisis

Mobile telecommunications in developing countries stand a good
chance of weathering the current economic turbulence. For example, well
into 2009, subscriber growth remained strong in the two largest
developing-country mobile markets. During the first seven months of
2009, India registered almost 100 million new wireless subscriptions.
Mobile devices are increasingly replacing fixed lines for voice
communications in developing nations. They are also used for new
purposes - such as by small entrepreneurs - making them even more
desirable. The demand for mobile telephony in many developing countries
is thus likely to undergo further expansion, despite the crisis. The
production of IT and ICT-enabled services also appears to have been
relatively resilient (see UNCTAD/PRESS/PR/2009/056).

By contrast, the production of various ICT goods and services has
been seriously affected by the global recession. The volatile
semiconductor industry has been among the worst hit. Revenue growth
also turned negative for the largest makers of such IT equipment as
computers and consumer electronic devices. The same is true of the top
manufacturers of communication equipment. Over the medium to long term,
however, companies will continue to upgrade their ICT systems, as this
is essential for their competitiveness. If anything, the crisis has
made effective corporate use of ICTs, which improve efficiency, even
more important.

* Fresh start, or another week on the treadmill? - http://feedblitz.com/r.asp?l=42019687&f=175425&u=11399690&c=2840625
 
 

The Seoul ICANN meeting is over and my reaction to it is complex. On the one hand, the meeting felt like a fresh start: it was a showcase for the optimistic, likeable and accessible new President, Rod Beckstrom; it marked the end of the Commerce Department JPA; and it put into place a new domain name policy making structure with a revitalized and somewhat more empowered civil society segment (the NCSG).

On the other hand, ICANN's continuing inability to define an ongoing process for the routine addition of new top level domain names, and the multiplication of new obstacles in their attempt to do so, hung over the meeting like a thick cloud of gray Seoul smog. It produced a deadening feeling that we have been on the same stupid treadmill for 10 years.? Email to a friend ?

* Grumbling about the Affirmation - http://feedblitz.com/r.asp?l=42013805&f=175425&u=11399690&c=2840625
 
 

The new "Affirmation of Commitments" was, naturally, a major topic at the Seoul ICANN meeting. In the short meeting held to discuss it, ICANN seemed more interested in discussing methodology than in talking about the purpose and scope of the reviews. The audience, however, wanted to talk about accountability. The following comments, circulated afterwards by Becky Burr, reflect the tone of much of the discussion:? Email to a friend ?

At the Seoul meeting the Registrar Stakeholder Group has adopted a position paper supporting the removal of rules that prohibit them from selling names in TLD registries they own or control. Prior to this, many observers of the controversy assumed that it was only Demand Media (ENom) and a few other large registrars who supported the removal of this restriction from new TLDs. Now we see more of an industry-wide cleavage between registrars and registries.? Email to a friend ?

The all-important direct meeting between the ICANN Board and the Noncommercial Users Constituency (NCUC), which represents civil society in ICANN's Generic Names Supporting Organization, took place today. It cleared up a number of misunderstandings, providing a sobering reminder of how badly things can go awry when bureaucracy mediates between the Board and ICANN participants.? Email to a friend ?

The 2009 Giganet scholarship award, intended to promote participation and scholarly work in Internet governance, has been awarded to Dr. Robert Bodle for his paper, Social Media and Global Internet Governance: Innovations and Limitations, which will be presented by him at the 2009 Giganet Symposium.

The first Internet Governance Forum-USA was held last Friday in Washington DC. During the closing plenary session panelists from all stakeholder groups agreed the IGF is a useful exercise that contributes positively to Internet governance. ???(The IGF) deals with global issues, transnational issues, ones that require coordination across political boundaries, and that is probably the most important thing about the IGF,??? IGP's Milton Mueller said. ???We cannot deal with the Internet in a purely national context. We don???t want to put the Internet back into boxes for the purposes of regulation.????

La lucha contra el Sida es todos los d?as
?
El D?a Mundial del Sida es una se?al en el tiempo para recapitular lo hecho y plantear objetivos para las acciones futuras.
?
A menudo los derechos humanos son mal entendidos y a veces pueden ser vistos como ideales abstractos con poca importancia pr?ctica para la gente real.

El tema del D?a Mundial del SIDA 2009 es ?Acceso universal y derechos humanos? 
Puede ser dif?cil entender el VIH y el SIDA desde una perspectiva de derechos humanos. 
A menudo los derechos humanos son mal entendidos y a veces pueden ser vistos como ideales abstractos con poca importancia pr?ctica para la gente real. 
Al ser el tema del D?a Mundial del SIDA 2009 ?Acceso universal y derechos humanos? los lemas principales son los siguientes: 

Soy aceptado. 
Estoy a salvo. 
Estoy recibiendo tratamiento. 
Estoy bien.
Estoy viviendo mis derechos. 
Todo el mundo merece vivir sus derechos. 
Derecho a la vida.
Derecho a la salud.
El acceso para todos a la prevenci?n, tratamiento, atenci?n y apoyo es una parte fundamental de los derechos humanos. 
El concepto del D?a Mundial del SIDA se origin? en la Cumbre Mundial de Ministros de Salud sobre Programas de Prevenci?n del SIDA en 1988. Desde entonces, los organismos de las Naciones Unidas, los gobiernos y todos los sectores de la sociedad civil se unen en todo el mundo cada a?o para celebrar actividades en torno a temas espec?ficos relacionados con el SIDA.
?
Los cambios que se est?n operando en la sociedad pronostican la difusi?n masiva de las TICs (Tecnolog?as de Informaci?n y comunicaci?n) porque permiten conformar Redes Sociales donde los usuarios se transforman en protagonistas activos y los j?venes utilizan estas tecnolog?as con mayor facilidad que un libro u otro material impreso.??
