Pay more to access 4G

Collusion at its best. Our anti competition authority is sleeping. They need a co-driver.

A reminder, you need a good ground to make the statement.

CCS in Singapore is pretty aggressive, comparing with its counterparts in other countries in the region.

It is also unfair to assume telcos are working in collusion, unless you has reasonable ground to support it.

Put it this way, what is the basis for charging?
In a real competition, if M1 starts to charge the service, I will maintain or charge less.
Looking at the papers today, do you think that will happen?
Why is everyone charging almost the same amount?
Did they magically derived at the same approximate amount using some magical formula? I highly doubt so....no 2 pricing strategist will get the same price, most based it on what the others are charging.

If you look at the instant coffee situation, you will understand what I meant by real competition.
You offer 2 pack, I offer 2 and half pack, you slash price, I slash harder.
No doubt it will not be sustainable, but this is what I meant by competition. It is not necessary price but if you look at the telco situation, do you believe in your heart that there is competition there?

Not since when M1 and Starhub launch had I seen competition from the telcos on their phone services.

Not saturation either, as 4G is brand new...
