Posted August 30, 2011

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/a1dc21/singapore_mobile) has announced the addition of the "Singapore - Mobile Communications - Market Overview" report to their offering.

The mobile market in Singapore is characterised by its energy and innovation. Even when growth appeared to have slowed somewhat, there was still considerable effort going into value-added products and services. The market initially approached the launch of 3G with a degree of caution. As the licences were issued and the networks rolled out, some of the major operators and, to some extent, the government were circumspect about the prospect of next generation of mobiles.

However, coming into 2011 3G subscriptions comprised some 66% of the total mobile subscriber base of almost eight million. And overall this represented a mobile penetration rate of 144%. Singapore has the lowest mobile prices in the world as a proportion of income according to the ITU's most recent ICT development index.
