摘要

Although many countries around the world have modern telecommunications networks that support broadband access to the home, broadband penetration rates vary across these countries. One of the key factors explaining this difference in penetration rates are the government initiatives in the various countries, particularly in the more developed Asian economies, to achieve specific national information communication objectives. Specifically, the governments of South Korea, Taiwan, Japan, Malaysia and Singapore, have launched “Version 4.0” of the National Information Infrastructure (NII) plan first deployed in the early 1990s. Governments are motivated to develop national broadband networks for several reasons, including increasing productivity in the national economy, job creation as well as increasing the effectiveness of the health care system and education through tele-health and tele-education initiatives, respectively. But it is not clear if national government policies are more effective than “lassaire fare” approaches in achieving these goals. This paper assesses the effectiveness of these government NII policies, in South Korea, Taiwan and Singapore, compared to the United States, in achieving economic and social development. Specifically, some of the questions that this paper addresses include the following: ??What is the current status of deployment rates of these new ICT applications and services? ?Is there any empirical evidence to suggest that the governments have been able to achieve their espoused economic goals through their national policies? Have government policies being effective in encouraging development of new innovative services or has a “lassaire fare” approach been more successful? ?Have some national governments been more successful in achieving their stated goals? What are the factors explaining the differences in achievements?
