The report also provides information on the fixed-line and VoIP services market. Though still small in relative terms, the VoIP services market is expanding in line with the rollout of the Ultra-Fast Broadband Network and as broadband services become available to more areas of the country. Small and medium enterprises and government departments are installing VoIP as part of larger ICT solutions aimed at cutting overall operating costs and providing increased flexibility.
The fixed-line voice market (voice calls and local access) continues to lose overall share of the telecom services market, partly caused by the drop in call prices and volumes as the uptake of mobile and other P2P services continues.
