Abstract

This paper presents a view of network roll out to enable digitalization and economic growth. The policy overview and analyses of the alternative connections among the network points provides us with the same picture, i.e., the market is competitive, but also gives us the potential to roll out high-speed networks with lower costs and in shorter time periods. As the policy and real-data analyses suggest, the inclusive cooperation of the stakeholders and the empowerment of the relevant bodies are essential to ensure that the proposed system will work. Connectivity should lose the label of a development inhibitor and become a key factor in the consciousness of all the sectors.
