While you’re sulking over your slow Internet connection and probably waiting for this page to fully load, the folks in Hong Kong will be enjoying 100Mbps Internet speed at 50% of its original price. All they have to do is introduce a friend, and both of them get the half price benefit, paying only USD$13 a month each. You know what’s best? They’re guaranteed at least 80% of the advertised speed when browsing domestic websites, sounds like such a far fetched dream for us.
“William Yeung, Chief Executive Officer of HKBN noted that at least 32% of Internet users in Hong Kong suffer from broadband speeds below 10Mbps, and the Hong Kong special administrative region of the People’s Republic of China lags behind Korea and Japan in terms of fiber to the home service, something Yeung would like to see changed.”
Apart from that, HKBN also provide speed of up to 1Gbps using fiber optics network. Hit the jump for some interesting advertisements from HKBN telling users to switch from slow DSL service to fiber optics.
