BMI’s adjustment to its forecasts for the Thailand mobile market indicate that growth has been slower than originally expected, with 2.28mn net additions in the third quarter of 2008, to end on 59.757mn subscribers. With penetration rates reaching 93%, it is no surprise that demand in the market is slowing. We now estimate that there were around 62mn subscribers at the end of 2008, and forecast this number will rise to 100mn by the end of 2013.
We believe subscriber numbers are inflated somewhat by multiple SIM ownership; with tariffs becoming cheaper and operators competing for new subscribers in an increasingly mature mobile sector. This has led customers to take advantage of offers from more than one provider. Some efforts are being made to expand networks outside of the saturated urban areas and into remote villages, where network coverage is still sparse.
The government appears keen to ensure that 3G licences are awarded in the first half of 2009, perhaps seen as one way to kick-start spending in the economy, which is on the brink of entering a recession (according to information released at the time of writing). However, the extent to which this can happen will depend on the investment plans of operators. To a large extent, many have reduced their capital expenditure plans, while others look to stretch their funds over a lengthier period of time.
Despite the continuous delays to 3G licensing, this has not stopped operators from introducing a number of non-voice initiatives in the hope of encouraging ARPU growth. In our new Mobile Content section we examine the evolving usage patterns among data users. Many of these services have been launched over EDGE (2.5G) networks, and while SMS remains the basic form of non-voice data used, it is increasingly being overtaken by mobile music and ringtones. The introduction of mobile money, allowing users to make point of sale purchases with mobile credit, represents one of the latest non-voice applications.
In this latest report, we have undertaken a focus towards mobile content, which has meant that for this quarter, the fixed-line and broadband market data analysis sections are unchanged. These will be looked at in full in our Q309 telecoms reports, with new sub-sections introduced.
Meanwhile, Thailand sits in 16th place in our regional Business Environment Rankings, down one spot due to the first time entrance of Cambodia and Laos. The country’s scores for the main indicators are largely the same as the previous quarter, with the exception of a revision to its Country Risk score; this now accounts for an expected recession, after economic data released by the country showed that the final quarter of 2008 had witnessed negative growth.
