Indeed this is correct, our country leaders never dream of competing now to other country, instead we are give all our good engineers, designer, inventors, and other talents to other country to used and for their countries benefits, how it sad to admit that Pilipino now forget to dream more higher, instead we just dream what we will do tomorrow, but not in more very much long term solution. I’m so proud that still their is people like you who question this aspect. well my friend we still not yet find our great filipino leader that will bring us back to our glorious years.

you can argue about population desensity effecting the different different BUT, compare to canada which has alot less crowded population and is smaller then united states, that isnt really the issue.

Also if i remember, Japan has alot of places equiiped with fiber optic internet cables, which are cheaper, stronger?? and faster then the copper internet which, not alot of the united states started doing. And i bet that when they do, japan internet price will be cheaper compare to united states

Hi, just wandered by. I have a Rhode Island 4g website. Can’t believe the amount of information out there. Not what I was looking for, but very nice site. Take care.

[...] My apartment’s internet connection will be installed on May 25th. To be fair, the delay is partly my fault – because of my lab schedule, the only time I’m available for NTT to come around and do the installation is on Sundays, and the demand for Sundays is high, so there’s a bit of a waiting list. (At least the connection speed should be worth the wait.) [...]

umaabot ng 1Gig ang download speed nila panalo ang speed nila..

Kaya mahina internet speed natin kasi mahal daw yung equipment yan ang palusot ng telco dito sa Pinas pero sa totoo bilyones ang profit nila.I’m an Engineer by profession working in a telco company.Fiber Optics na tayo dito mula Luzon to mindanao. I’m a network engineer designing optical networks. What the management do is they limit the bandwidth to us subscribers. I know that Telco here are using the DWDM platform with STM 64 as transmission speed of data. That’s a very large bandwidth but to divide the internet speed among consumers they limit it. So if i were to compare speed in other countries we are really behind. Companies here and NTC they have an agreement na di natin alam. Tapos sasabihin nila na hi velocity broadband??? how ironic!!! dapat nga wala na tayo 384 kbps. 1 mbps to 2mbps dapat minimum speed. Kaya yan sa Telco dito pero mahal bayad naman baka ubos pera mo sa monthly bills…

what happened to us filipinos we are not competing with japan anymore when marcos was in the office he planned a computer and laptop brand which is made by pinoy made in pinas for pinoys a car brand and many more like pulling out the deuterium from the philippine deep if he is still alive and planning again for another term i would definitely tell my mom and dad to vote him and if only marcos’es regime was finished with all of his plans for the country finished im sure our country this days could have been the world’s wealthiest country!?

hope the broadband companies here in RP make a move to at least improve their services. i read in a forum that these companies are so monopolistic that they exploit every aspect in internet service. slow and expensive. perfect.

The speeds are pretty good in Japan
Here (in Bulgaria, in Eastern Europe) the speeds are around 30 MBit/s, and technologies like PON, FTTH, FTTP are just starting on the market. I’m on GBit fiber and speed 20+ MB/s (megabytes) are normal.
I wonder that price are paying in Japan for their connections?

this is what makes me sick.
we are probably in the top five when it comes to IT outsourcing but our internet here is so slow and expensive.

govt and telcos should really do something about this.

Hmm… why is Hong Kong not there… my HK friends reports that their top Home connection speed that is affordable to the general population is 7mbps. (Which is roughly the 1.5mbps price in the Philippines.)

And there’s a lot of interest – a ton of it, on the spectrum auction in the US. Controversies are surrounding it as we speak. It will quite possibly be the last auction of such in a very long time, thus major players are scrambling for a bigger piece of the pie. And consumers and advocacy groups know that the results of the auction will play a significant role on pricing and service trends in the years that will follow….

S. korea and Japan homes are just a few feet from their hub.

I’m in SF Peninsula, connected to a relay or ATM switch near my neighborhood which connects to Hayward, CA. My IP address on however shows I’m in the midwest.

Comcast just came out with the a 150mbps modem.

Thanks, it was a pretty interesting chart to me, because I lived and did commercial Internet business in Japan from 1996 through 1999. At that time the telcos and the government were not very forward looking about the Internet at all … South Korea was already about at the speeds they are today, so this had been a tremendous move forward for Japan, in 8 year’s time.

@ Vern, yes, it’s true, the US average speed sucks .. it’s better than the Philippines, perhaps, but lags far, far behind many other countries … much of the US infrastructure is owned/run by cable TV companies and their Internet service is just a necessary evil to them and their business model is built upon “provide the customer with the absolute least”. HBO is much more profitable than ISP service, so that’s where the money is spent.

Wow! I remember the time I asked my friends in the US about their connection speed there – said it was much faster, considerably much faster than in the Philippines (they have visited the Philippines more than 5 times already).
But wooooh! Look at Japan’s lead. IT IS a big spread! Awesome!

Looks like Japan is really maximizing its technology, pairing it with impressive dsl speed! well, my bestbud says Canada’s dsl is way way wayy faster than ours, so what more with Japan? I can only imagine!
