The Internet Cafe


The UN announced details of their research about the price of Internet access services. As it turned out, the cheapest internet access in the world - in China, and the most expensive in Africa. Region of Macao in China - the champion of cheap internet, if you want it to connect to the network, you can not pay more 0.3% of the average one-month income.

Immediately after China, is Israel, where a resident will pay a maximum of 0.33% of their monthly income for access to the Internet. Well, at the third position is located in Hong Kong, with its figure of 0.49% of revenue.

In the Central African Republic the opposite situation, where only a small proportion of the population can afford the luxury of an internet connection. Quite simply, this is due to high prices - the price is often 40 times higher than GDP per capita. This situation is not like the UN, and is currently developing a project of development of broadband Internet access in Africa.

If you look at the statistics separately for Russia, it is the cheapest internet access in Moscow. For connection to a speed of 2 Mbps you will be asked only 300 rubles. But in the most expensive internet Khabarovsk in Russia, the price of a similar service to Moscow, will be as much as 1,800 rubles!
