...Canadian Economic History Final How Institutional Settings matter Tri-networks integration and IPTV Student ID No. 1310511012 Student Name Zhang Qiyue (Emily) School Suzhou University Major Field International Finance Advisor Sam Yu Date Janurary 2016 How Institutional Settings matter Tri-networks integration and IPTV Abstracts: This paper will first make a brief introduction on IPTV industry and its present status of development in China. The promotion of IPTV is affected not only by the technology and market demand, but also by the regulatory policy. Policy barriers caused by yield game between telecom operators and State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (SARFT) about profit allocation hindered the development of IPTV. We use the Stackelberg model to analyze the yield game between telecom operators and SARFT. With deep integration between the industry, the traditional regulatory framework should also advance with the times, be replaced by a more flexible integration framework, so as to promote the development of IPTV and other integration of services. However, the pace of development is far below expectations in China. Many experts pointed out that there were few technical problems existing in IPTV, which leaves the main crux to its institutional settings. We will also discuss how institutional settings matter the industry, find out proper...

...| | Telecommunications in Sudan PREPAID BY: DAOUD ADAM CEO, GREENWAY COMM. PHILADELPHIA USA Revolutionary advances in information and communications technologies (ICT) are transforming the world economy and presenting new challenges to all countries. The challenges are to compete effectively in an emerging information-based economy in which computing and communications play a central role, as well as to take full advantage of the enormous potential of information and communications in advancing all aspects of economic, social and cultural life. Sudan is no exception. The Sudanese government has emphasized that economic reform is inseparable from social reform and that the highest priorities for the coming development phase are the reduction of unemployment, the growth of exports and the modernization of education. Realizing how a strong communications and information technology sector would contribute to high and sustainable economic growth for the Sudanese economy, the government is adopting the development of information and communications technology as a national priority. The formation of the new Ministry of Communications & Information Technology (MCIT) in October 1996 marked a new era for Sudan’s telecommunications and information technology sector characterized by a new regulatory framework and a more liberalized market. A new National ICT Plan has...

...The close rival of Telstra is SingTel-Optus, as of FY 2013. In spite of its dominating position in the Australian market, Telstra encountered a decreasing growth rate of 2.5% in its total assets. The decrease in total assets of the company can be primarily due to decrease in cash and cash equivalents that are brought by ‘borrowing repayments,’ more promotional activities, acquisition of increased inventory levels and ‘network expansion’ (Telstra 2013b, p. 19). Current and more liquid assets (readily available cash) are very important in sustaining and absorbing the costs that are inherent in building network infrastructures and telecommunication facilities.

...World Dialogue on Regulation for Network Economies Regulation and Investment: Case study of Bangladesh Harsha de Silva[1] and Abu Saeed Khan[2] August 2004 Abstract The paper considers the available evidence in determining a relationship, if any, in the Telecom Regulatory Environment [TRE] of Bangladesh and investments in to its telecommunications industry over the last decade. TRE is segmented in to market entry, access to scarce resources, interconnection, tariff regulation and regulation of anti-competitive practices while investments are all non-divestiture foreign and domestic private and public investment. The TRE in Bangladesh is found to be wanting in all defined aspects. Interconnection is the worst of the five components, where a mobile only parallel network is being created due to regulatory ineffectiveness where almost ninety percent of mobile users do not have access to a fixed phone. Investments in to the fixed sector in Bangladesh dominated by the state owned virtual monopoly have been sorely inadequate and continue to be dictated by the funds availability [or lack thereof] of the Government. The mobile sector on the other hand has seen some amount of investments flowing in led by the widely acclaimed GrameenPhone. However, once standardized to compare across the region, it is found, even though using imperfect data to compare, that the reason for this flow could...
