Japan's telecommunications industry: Competition and regulatory reform

Author

  • Naoe, Shigehiko

Abstract

Japanese policy making over the past decade has been focused on reform of NTT. This article first reconsiders the privatization of NTT from the different perspectives of NTT and MPT and elaborates the problems faced in introducing competition. It discusses the present structure of the telecommunications industry and the regulatory issues which need to be addressed as Japan's industry begins to make the transition to both a competitive market structure and a multimedia industry. It argues that reform of NTT alone should not form the basus for future telecommunications policy making in Japan.
