With such a small country with such richness it has can provide free WiMAX technology to all its population. But reality is that only QTel is holding monopoly. With no competition-customers are suffering(forget about Vodafone- I heard that they are also part of Qtel-just to cheat consumers). Mobile and Internet is still expensive in Qatar comparing with some of even poor countries of the world like India.
Please answer me these questions if you can..
-Is there any competition in ICT business in Qatar?
-What percentage of people (Qataris and Expat) can afford Internet Broadband line of 512K/sec in their home?
-What percentage of people in Qatar (LOcal and foreigner)have 3G network with Internet?
-How many government services are run/done online?
-What is percentage of Offices (Government or private) have Internet connection of speed 4M/sec ?
-what percentage of day-today life activities done with or help of ICT?
