Mobile data and wireless broadband services across Asia being driven by FttX, Wi-Fi offload, 3G,
LTE and high smartphone adoption. With some three billion Asians
using mobile phones - almost half of the number of mobile
subscribers in the world – spread across a diverse range of
markets, the region is already exploiting its huge potential for
mobile data/wireless broadband services.
Growth in mobile wireless internet across Asia has been largely driven by highly
competitive markets combined with the arrival of new generation
mobile technologies. With 3G and 3G+ platforms spreading rapidly
throughout the region, cheaper handset prices and lower airtime
tariffs have combined to support the even wider adoption of mobile
broadband services.
The developed markets in the region, such as Japan, South
Korea, Hong Kong,
Singapore and Taiwan, have positioned themselves well to
exploit mobile data and broadband wireless opportunities and lead
the rest of the region into the next generations of mobile
applications. As 3G moves through 3.5G towards 4G/LTE and speeds
increase, as service improves and as content providers offer more,
we are seeing exponential growth in data usage occurring in the
leading markets. Hong Kong is a
good example of the explosion in mobile data.

While 3G licensing and the ongoing launch of 3G services in
Asia has certainly been providing
the basis for growth in wireless data services, 3G has also been
providing opportunities for both wireless access and content
providers in domestic markets. In South
Asia, in particular, more people own a mobile phone than a
PC, giving the delivery of mobile data services huge potential
there.
Mobile data is not a new phenomenon in Asia. An example of the early widespread
adoption of a particular mobile data service in the region has been
the Short Message Service (SMS). SMS became very popular throughout
Asia ahead of the wider market,
with remarkable growth being experienced in particular in
the Philippines and Malaysia, as well as in China.
The business plans of the majority of mobile operators have been
built on the assumption that the key to further revenue growth lies
not just in building customer bases but in the ability to offer
more Value-Added Services (VAS) and, most importantly, efficient
and effective access to the internet.
An early push in this direction saw Japan's NTT DoCoMo launched its i-Mode service
and its two rivals –SoftBank and KDDI - launched their own versions
of i-Mode with dramatic success, with over 80% of mobile
subscribers in Japan logging on
from a mobile using one of these platforms.
More recent mobile data development in Asia has essentially been built on the 3G and
3G+ technology platforms. As a consequence, right across
Asia with the transition to a
range of new generation mobile platforms, there has been a major
shift from mobile voice to mobile data.
An example of the way in which 3G has been progressively
reshaping the mobile markets across the region can be found in
Singapore. By July 2012 the number of mobile subscribers had
reached 7.9 million for a penetration of 152%; of these subscribers
a huge majority, 6.2 million, were signed up to 3G services. That
means that just the 3G subscribers alone represented a penetration
in excess of 100%. Or, in other words, Singapore had more mobile broadband
subscribers than population. We note another big change when we
compare 3G with 2G; there has been a major shift from the high
level of prepaid 2G subscribers to the postpaid subscriptions for
3G. Even though operators in Singapore are offering prepaid 3G services, a
solid 65% of 3G subscribers in that market are in fact
postpaid.
Regionally, mobile broadband penetration was around 11% by early
2012. This represented a total of 460 million mobile broadband
subscribers across the region; of the markets in Asia, as well as Singapore, South
Korea had more mobile broadband subscribers than population;
and coming into 2012 Japan was not far behind on 90% mobile
broadband penetration.
Almost all markets in Asia had
effectively witnessed the licensing and launch of 3G networks by
2012. (Thailand, the last of the
significant markets in region to introduce 3G, was continuing to
have regulatory and licensing problems.)
In the context of mobile broadband services, mention must be
made of the WiMAX platform. Whilst there has been some activity in
the providing of fixed WiMAX networks, the real test has been the
advent of mobile WiMAX. The roll-out of WiMAX-based mobile services
in Asia has begun; however, it has
been a cautious start and significant rollouts have been limited to
just a few markets. The technology still continues to be strongly
supported at this stage of its development. The big question is
whether it will become a mass market platform or simply satisfy a
niche market need. Pakistan,
Bangladesh and Malaysia are WiMAX markets to watch.
Key operators in the region have been investing heavily in WiFi
and the deployment of femtocells for mobile network offload.
South Korea for example, has seen
an 11-fold jump in mobile data traffic over a one year period and
WiFi traffic accounting for a third of all mobile traffic. Leaders
in mobile data usage, there is a new drive for NFC chips in
smartphones which will further drive data usage.
Coming into 2012 Singapore was following on the path of
South Korea (and Hong Kong) in adopting initiatives to enable
3G traffic to be more easily offloaded to WiFi. A major capacity
upgrade to the Singapore's free
public WiFi network, Wireless@SG, was set to commence together with
a plan to enable mobile devices to switch seamlessly between the
mobile and Wireless@SG networks.
