webfact Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Thailand soars ahead with 5G rollout in Southeast Asia By Joe Devanesan ++ With the pandemic interfering with 5G rollout plans in ASEAN, Thailand took the surprising lead with commercial 5G networks introduced before their neighbors ++ COVID-19 helped accelerate commercial 5G rollouts, kicking off with hospitals in major cities around Thailand ++ The top network operators are now introducing 5G in other commercial districts including shopping malls and the financial district 2020 was looking like the year 5G exploded across the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, and Southeast Asia in particular. Following the successful rollouts of 5G networks and infrastructure in several trend-leading APAC countries – 2019 saw large-scale infrastructure introductions in China with 57 5G-connected cities, South Korea with 85 cities, Australia with 40-plus cities and townships, while Japan introduced commercial 5G this year – most expected Southeast Asian players like Malaysia and Singapore to be next, with numerous 5G pilot projects and trials taking off across the area, in a varied range of sectors including manufacturing, mobility, smart city projects, and more. Analysts had been predicting that APAC will lead the way in 5G networks and applications, and with 1.14 billion subscribers would account for up to 65% of global 5G subscriptions by 2024. Those estimates were dramatically set back earlier this year when the coronavirus pandemic set in, starting with the Asia Pacific region.

Popular Post Grumpy John Posted June 11, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 11, 2020 (edited) I don't really need it so I will buy another 4G phone later in the year. I don't download movies, only sometimes surf farcebook ETc, get maybe 5 local calls a month. Talk to the Billy Lids on Whatsapp.... I am guessing I could get by on an old 3G phone. ????

Popular Post brain150 Posted June 11, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 11, 2020 I wonder when people start to look into EMF health problems. They are well documented. From military all around the world. The problem is known for a very long time and not secret at all. And there are quite some Scientists and Doctors who see a possible connection between EMF Technology and what most call Covid-19 [I am still waiting to see any scientific evidence that somebody has isolated the virus though] 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The telephone lines are unreliable, and this bypasses that requirement. Next: Cheap solar solution for everyone, bypass electric lines. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to the new normal. To be honest, I am still undecided on the long term health effects of EMF Smog, and I feel that there is not enough information yet to know for sure. But you are correct that we do not get a choice as to whether or not we want to be involved in the experiment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
