The National Communications Commission (NCC) has recently published the 2019 Communications Market Report containing the results of a consumer survey and an analysis of the telecommunications and broadcasting markets, broadband usage, and digital convergence in Taiwan, as well as a general analysis of trends in communications convergence in both Taiwan and other nations. NCC has also established an interactive website based on the statistics of the survey, aiming to provide comprehensive and most up-to-date information on the communications industry.
The report characterizes the most recent information on industry development in Taiwan, analyzing consumer behavior, and comparing Taiwan with other countries. Moreover, since the first annual report was published two years ago, comparisons can now be made with previous ones to illustrate developments and trends, thereby providing a valuable reference for government and academia to deepen understanding of the current status of the digital economy. Similarly, the report enables the private sector to explore consumer markets and the public sector to develop more effective rules and policies.
The 2019 Communications Market Report is available in both Chinese and English. The Chinese version covers a wide range of topics, including a detailed analysis of important convergence policies in Taiwan, as well as other nations. The first section is centered on the current market status of the telecommunications and broadcasting in both Taiwan and overseas and subsequently provides a benchmark on how well Taiwan is doing when compared to other nations. The second section details trends in communications convergence in Taiwan, as well as the background and methodology of the survey. Meanwhile, the following sections three to six cover an analysis of key issues in telecommunications, broadcasting, broadband usage, and convergence development. The next section provides comparisons with surveys from the previous two years while the last section contains noteworthy trends and comprehensive recommendations based on the analysis.
With more of a focus on the results of the survey, the English version provides a picture of the communications market by clearly illustrating developments in communications, broadband and convergence, in addition to methodology and survey subjects.
