 Nepal - Telecoms Market Overview, Statistics & Forecasts
Nepal is among the poorer and less developed countries in the world. Amid an unsettled political climate, the country has moved to a more liberalised telecom market. By April 2007, over 200 operators had been authorised to provide a wide range of telecom services, including two for basic telephony (Nepal Telecom and United Telecom Ltd) and two for mobile service (Nepal Telecom and Spice Nepal). In addition, the licensing of a relatively large number of ISPs, together with the liberalisation of the VSAT data market, has created excellent conditions for the Internet to thrive. The government announced plans in 2007 to award a licence to a fifth operator in order to improve services to the western part of the country. This report looks at the overall state of telecommunications in Nepal and provides a selection of pertinent market statistics.
