in order to provide incentives for operators to make the investments necessary to bridge the infrastructure gap between developing and developed countries. 1. 5 Use of ICTS Internet users ITU estimates that, by end 2014,

in developing countries, the number of Internet users will have doubled in five years (2009-2014), and two-thirds of today's Internet users live in the developing world.

Growth rates are highest in LDCS (13 per cent in 2014), but they are starting from low Chart 1. 15:

Therefore, it comes as no surprise that 45 per cent of the world's Internet users live in this region.

The two countries combined are home to around 860 million Internet users, almost 30 per cent of the world's total and 66 per cent of Internet users in the Asia-Pacific region.

while the percentage of Internet users in China is 46 per cent, it is only 18 per cent in India.

Internet content and use of social media The growth in Internet users has witnessed a parallel, steep growth in the volume of Internet content.

and therefore the numbers do not represent unique Internet users (ITU, 2011). Twitter, the leading international microblogging service,

By February 2014, Wikipedia registered more than 20 billion page views per month by Internet users. At the same time, the proportion of articles in English has decreased significantly from 46 per cent in 2003 to 15 per cent in 2013

there are more comparable data on ICT infrastructure, household access and Internet users. For example, at the beginning of the century, only around a dozen developing countries collected data on Internet users,

while today there are almost 50 developing countries collecting this indicator through official surveys (Chart Box 1. 2). Data on household access to the Internet

In 2013, international Internet bandwidth stood at 1. 7 million bit/s per Internet user, which is the second highest value after Luxembourg's. Hong kong (China) has the second highest fixed-telephone penetration globally, at 63 per cent,

which added significant amounts of international Internet bandwidth and increased international Internet bandwidth per Internet user from around 6 000 bit/s in 2012 to close to 12 000 bit/s per user

While this is still one of the lowest absolute figures in The americas region (only Cuba has a lower bandwidth per Internet user),

and a high amount of international Internet bandwidth (close to 82 000 bit/s per Internet user). 30 It is well-connected to its neighbouring countries in the CIS region

Kenya has the highest amount of international Internet bandwidth, both in total and per Internet user,

Seychelles (24 000 bit/s) and Mauritius (24 500 bit/s) also have relatively high amounts of bandwidth per Internet user, partly because of their very small populations and hence small number of Internet users.

Africa was home to 150 million Internet users by end 2013. This corresponds to around 17 per cent of the population in the region.

these include, in particular, the landlocked and least connected countries Afghanistan, Bhutan and Nepal, with less than 4 000 bit/s per Internet user.

This includes around 600 million Chinese and 200 million Indian Internet users. Comparing the two the proportion of the population using the Internet is much higher in China (44 per cent) than India (15 per cent.

only Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Lao P. D. R.,Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan and Solomon islands recorded a lower proportion of Internet users.

in terms of bandwidth per Internet user the country is below most other CIS countries. International Internet bandwidth per Internet user is highest in Moldova (115 845 bit/s per user),

followed by Belarus (94 797 bit/s per user) and Georgia (82 094 bit/s per user).

The highest levels are reached in international hubs such as Germany, Luxembourg and the United kingdom. High amounts of bandwidth per Internet user,

ensure that a large number of Internet users can go online at high speeds. Around three-quarters of European households have access to the Internet at home.

A well-developed ICT infrastructure and the availability of high-speed broadband Internet access and relevant content are reflected in a higher proportion of Internet users in the region.
