Pakistan Telecommunications and Broadband Reports

Pakistan Telecoms Market Overview and Statistics Report
Internet access has been available in Pakistan since the mid-1990s. PCTL started offering access via the nationwide local call network in 1995. By early 2006 Internet penetration remained low. There were signs that this was changing, however. The country has been pursuing an aggressive IT policy, aimed at boosting Pakistan’s drive for economic modernisation and creating an exportable software industry. There is no doubt that has been helping increase the popularity of the Internet. The market certainly has huge potential, but there is a long way to go. This report looks at the development of Internet and e-commerce in Pakistan.
