iv 2011 The Little Data Book on Information and Communication Technology

The Little Data Book on Information and Communication Technology 2011 is

the result of close collaboration between the staff of the Development Data

Group of the Development Economics Vice Presidency and the Transport,

Water, and Information Communication Technologies Department of the

World Bank. The Development Data Group team included Azita Amjadi,

David Cieslikowski, Federico Escaler, Buyant Erdene Khaltarkhuu, Alison

Kwong, Jomo Tariku, and William Prince. The Global Information and

Communication Technologies team included Kaoru Kimura, Marta Priftis,

Christine Zhenwei Qiang and Helen Yang. We would also like to acknowledge

the cooperation of the International Telecommunication Union on the use

of its data. The work was carried out under the management of Shaida

Badiee and Philippe Dongier. The book was typeset by Alison Kwong. Staff

from External Affairs oversaw publication and dissemination of the book.

vThe Little Data Book on Information and Communication Technology 2011

PrefaceSince the late 1990s access to information and communication technologies

has seen tremendous growthdriven primarily by the wireless technologies

and liberalization of telecommunications markets. Mobile communications

have evolved from simple voice and text services to diversified innovative

applications and mobile broadband Internet. The number of mobile cellular

subscriptions reached approximately 4.7 billion globally, including people in

remote and rural areas. The number of Internet users has risen constantly

and now tops 1.8 billion people, with the number of broadband connections

more than 470 million in 2009.

The impacts of information and communication technologies cross all

sectors. Research shows that investment in information and communication

technologies is associated with such economic benefits as higher productivity,

lower costs, new economic opportunities, job creation, innovation, and

increased trade and exports. Information and communication technologies

also help provide better services in health and education and strengthen

social cohesion.

The Little Data Book on Information and Communication Technology 2011

charts the progress of this revolution for 213 countries around the world. It

provides comparable statistics on the sector for 2000 and 2009 across a

range of indicators, enabling readers to readily compare countries.

This book includes indicators covering the economic and social context, the

structure of the information and communication technology sector, sector

efficiency and capacity, and sector performance related to access, usage,

quality, affordability, trade, and applications. TheGlossarycontains definitions

of the terms used in the tables.

and Communication Technologies Department at www.worldbank.org/ict.

vi 2011 The Little Data Book on Information and Communication Technology

The data in this book are for 2000 and 2009 or the most recent year unless

otherwise noted in the table or the Glossary.

Growth rates are proportional changes from the previous year unless

otherwise noted.

Regional aggregates include data for low- and middle-income

economies only.

Italics indicate data for years or periods other than those

specified.

Symbols used:

.. indicates that data are not available or that aggregates cannot

be calculated because of missing data.

0 or 0.0 indicates zero or small enough that the number would round

to zero at the displayed number of decimal places.

$ indicates current U.S. dollars.

Data are shown for economies with populations greater than 30,000 or for

smaller economies if they are members of the World Bank. The term country

(used interchangeably with economy) does not imply political independence

or official recognition by the World Bank but refers to any economy for which

the authorities report separate social or economic statistics.

For operational and analytical purposes the World Banks main criterion

for classifying economies is gross national income (GNI) per capita. Every

economy in The Little Data Book on Information and Communication Technology

is classified as low income, middle income, or high income. Low- and middle-

income economies are sometimes referred to as developing economies. The

use of the term is convenient; it is not intended to imply that all economies

in the group are experiencing similar development or that other economies

have reached a preferred or final stage of development. Classification by

income does not necessarily reflect development status.

Low-income economies are those with a GNI per capita of $995 or less

in 2009.

Middle-income economiesare those with a GNI per capita of more than

$995 but less than $12,196. Lower-middle-income and upper-middle-income

economies are separated at a GNI per capita of $3,945.

High-income economies are those with a GNI per capita of $12,196 or more.

Euro areaincludes the member states of the Economic and Monetary Union

of the European Union that have adopted the euro as their currency: Austria,

Belgium, Cyprus, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy,

Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Portugal, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, and

Spain.
