Singapore's internet fees amongst world's lowest at 39th place: study

At $21.78 per month, the country’s average fee is cheaper than most countries.

When measured against 62 countries, Singapore’s average internet price per month - $21.78 - at a 500 mbps speed passes as an affordable rate, according to a study by promotions and discounts company Picodi.

Singapore ended at the 39th rank, whilst South Africa registered with the highest rated internet monthly fee of $87.24, followed by Iceland with $69.05. Meanwhile, the cheapest rates were found to be in Eastern Europe with Russia at $8, and Ukraine at $6 at 100 mbps speed.

Singapore similarly emerged to be on the cheaper side when fared against fees for providing premium internet service. At 1 gbps, the country’s average monthly fee is at $29. In 24 out of 44 countries, where providers offer such speed, a monthly price exceeds $50. Super-fast internet is the most expensive in Austria and Australia at $220 and $231 respectively. Meanwhile, the cheapest fee for 1 gbps internet comes from Romania at just $9 per month.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
