Taiwan's Aboriginals go broadband
2007-11-28
BBC News
Given the vast quantities of electronic equipment manufactured in Taiwan it could be assumed that it was one of the most wired countries in the world – but there still remain communities in the country who are isolated from the web.
Now the government wants to change that, and plans to bring broadband to everyone in the country by the end of the year.
One of the most recent beneficiaries of this ambitious project is the village of Shan-Mei, home to 700 people from the Tsou tribe, in the remote Aboriginal mountain area in central Taiwan.
It is the latest place in the country to get broadband – part of a government plan called the “universal service obligation,” and funded by contributions from all of the island’s phone companies.

[社論] 韓國還稱得上IT強國嗎？
2007-06-26
朝鮮日報
朝鮮日報 (2007.06.26 10:43)
在美國經濟週刊《商業週刊》評選的信息技術(IT)百強企業中，韓國企業只有海力士（HYNIX）半導體榜上有名。在亞洲，進入百強最多的是台灣企業，達到14家，其次是日本（8家）、印度（6家），香港（3家）。截至2005年，韓國有LG電子（第3位）、三星電子（第5位）、KT（第47位）、LG電信（第73位）、KTF（第86位）5家企業列入IT企業百強。但去年減少到LG電信（第64位）和SK電信（第66位）兩家，今年只有海力士半導體列第 57位。“IT韓國”、“IT強國”的稱號讓人汗顏。
