The Asia-Pacific (APAC) region is making good progress with 5G deployment, with government backing being a significant factor in how quickly a country can become 5G-ready as of 2021.

According to Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) research across 16 APAC nations, nine markets have either completed 5G spectrum auctions or launched commercial 5G services, with some even crossing the 50% mark in terms of 5G coverage as of March this year.

Government funding was critical in supporting 5G networks and permitting trials for industrial uses.

Laveena Iyer, Research Analyst, EIU, said iTNews Asia in an interview: “Prior to a launch, having a comprehensive nationwide 5G roadmap is very helpful for operators. After a commercial launch government support in the form of tax incentives, low-cost loans, direct investment helps operators as they work on network expansion.”

After a commercial launch government support in the form of tax incentives, low-cost loans, direct investment helps operators as they work on network expansion.”

She added that the assistance has also spurred businesses to improve network speeds, coverage, and the number of use cases for the commercial sector.

In 5G, who is ahead and who is not?

South Korea, Taiwan, Japan, and China are the most advanced in 5G; Thailand is making good progress; and India, Indonesia, Vietnam, the Philippines, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, and Pakistan fall behind their regional rivals in terms of 5G policy implementation, having yet to develop one.

In some of these countries, operators are still focused on enhancing 4G connectivity, thus any progress on 5G is unlikely before 2022.

“A country’s ability to progress to 5G will largely depend on existing network infrastructure. Mature markets such as South Korea and Australia already had an over 90% 4G coverage. But Malaysia and the Philippines still clock under 80% in terms of 4G network coverage so operators in these countries will not be able to launch a 5G network until early 2022,” explained Iyer.

Looking ahead to 2021, she anticipates that different markets in the APAC area will pursue quite different goals, and that 5G adoption would be uneven.

“On one hand countries such as Japan and Taiwan are moving towards expanding 5G network coverage beyond major cities and improving network speed. On the other hand, in India and Indonesia, operators still await a nationwide 5G policy, certainty over contiguous blocks of 5G spectrum, final decision on the base price, etc. The disparity over progress in 5G will continue to be seen in Asia during this year.”
