3G service in Singapore
While Holidaying in Austraila, I came to realize that we in Singapore really have very bad 3G service. There have been people bashing local telcos on facebook and other online sites but I did not take those bashing seriously as I have not tried out other foreign telco before to do a comparison. In Austraila, I bought an Optus prepaid card to surf the internet for travel information and location service. The Optus sim card cost $2 and for $2 dollar a day, I get unlimited local call and data. The surfing speed was amazing. It was twice as fast than any Singapore telcos 3G service. I was stunned. Singapore is a small country and we cannot even roll out 3G service as well as Australia which is many times bigger than Singapore. I am using Optus 3G service which is owned by Singtel and it is ironic that how the parent company is providing inferior service than it's member company. I enjoying my mobile surfing in Australia and once I got back, I just hate my local telcos. In Short, they sucks!
