2008. The number of broadband subscribers represented about 67% of the total
Internet subscriber base, supported by a healthy number of ISPs providing a
competitive environment with attractive choice and pricing for subscribers. The
extensive DSL and cable coverage coupled with a large fibre optic footprint has
