December 10, Bangkok Post
True Internet Gateway Co, the gateway arm of True
Corporation, hopes to ride the country's broadband internet boom
with business growth in line with the industry average of double-digit
growth next year.
But the company acknowledged that revenue would not
rise along with the projected growth due to intense competition
from more operators, which has resulted in a sharp drop in bandwidth
charges.
General manager Anothai Ratanakul said traffic of the internet
gateway in Thailand is expected to rise to 30 gigabits per second
(Gbps) in 2008, up from 17.3 by the end of this year and 7.6 Gbps
in 2006. The market size of internet gateway services would jump
to six billion baht next year.
Dr Anothai said True Internet Gateway expected to see double-digit
traffic growth next year, with 6.4 Gbps, or a 20% market share.
