Abstract

Australia has only recently started investing in ICT development. The major investment started in the mid-1990s, when the government tried to cope with Australian external and internal gaps. Externally, Australia is remotely located from major economic centers, being left aside by the global markets. Internally, the island’s territorial extension and its scarcely populated hinterland have the potential of creating an internal digital divide and isolation. To overcome the danger of internal and external divide, the government has heavily invested in building adequate infrastructure.
