Book Description
Different nations experience different issues and concerns in privatizing their telecommunications systems. This book demonstrates the problems Thailand facing in the attempts to deregulate its telecommunications services. As more people began to demand the telecommunications reform to make the industry more competitive, the Ministry of Transport and Communications started formulating "Telecommunications Development Master Plan," which was the first official plan to restructure the telecommunications industry, and presented it to the cabinet in March of 1995. The challenges the Telecommunications Development Master Plan has been facing are not only from the public scrutiny and the inexperience of the policy makers but also from sudden political changes that happen so often that they delay the process of implementing the plan. This book reveals an interesting case study in telecommunications reform while underlying key events in the history of Thailand. It makes a good reference for academic scholars as well as policy setters in any country.
The Political Economy of Telecommunicatons Reforms in Thailand
Author: Sakkarin NiyomsilpaPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317741072
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
A study of the changing character of state-society relations in contemporary Thailand, using the telecommunications industry as a case study. It examines the privatization and gradual reforms of the 1980s and 1990s and the political dynamics behind these policies, as well as conflicts and co-operation among the various players and their interests. The book also covers bureaucratic and political corruption and their implications for Thailand's political democratization and economic liberalization. It argues not only that the bureaucracy is no longer the dominant power in Thai politics, but also that the country has moved towards a more pluralistic socio-political system in which a broadly-based liberalization coalition has emerged.

Telecommunications Reform in the Asia-Pacific Region
Author: Allan BrownPublisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
ISBN: 9781781958360
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
This book attempts to draw lessons from the experiences of developed as well as developing countries in carrying out telecommunications reform. Contributors come from academia, as well as from stakeholders in telecommunications policy in a dozen countries, mostly in the Asia-Pacific region. Globally, the telecommunications industry is undergoing major changes: technological advances in the form of a vast number of new digitised services, ownership shifts as state-owned carriers in many countries become fully or partly privatized, and a general transition from monopolistic to more competitive market environments. The economic and regulatory experiences derived from these changes are explored and analyzed using the USA, the UK, Australia and Singapore to represent developed and newly industrialized countries, and China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Vietnam as examples of developing countries. The conclusions outlined in this timely volume hold important lessons for these as well as for other countries.
