whatever it is, malaysia really needs to do quantum leaps on its infrastructure.
the united nations ranks malaysia 12th on e-participation. very highly commended and a great success for little people like me to be proud of. BUT because our infra sucks big time, malaysia is dragged down in the overall e-government development index to 32. 20 places down ! and colombia is ranked 31 above us ! refer to : http://www.unpan.org/egovkb/global_reports/08report.htm like it or not, malaysia has to lay fibre optics through out the country, then we can get full 3.5g or 4g or 5g or whatever. countries like singapore, korea, japan, uk, .. are so far ahead of us on fixed line broadband, that we need to do that quantum leap into high speed wireless broadband to compete with them. thankfully, we have maxis, p1 and digi to innovate the telco industry. if it was left to tmnet, we will still be doing dial-up broadband.... which 80% of us are still doing right now. according to the united nations, bahrain has leap-frogged us ! and india that the higher ups are so engrossed in wooing is ranked 119 ! thankfully, we have fewer indians developing 'e-government' projects for us. malaysia boleh ;-) malaysian macha' and thambi are much better lah ... colombia's national income per capita is us$4,620. malaysia's is us$7,250. to me it looks like tmnet has 'kencing' the country big time. how can a central american drug war ravaged country beat us in the overall e-government development index ? reference : http://data.worldbank.org/country (a beautiful site done using open source drupal) http://data.worldbank.org/country/malaysia http://data.worldbank.org/country/colombia hopefully, someone with a facebook account can paste this to yb rais' and yb najib's facebook account.
