Collectively, ASEAN is the sixth largest
economy in the world. Its rapidly growing digital economy generates about
US$150 billion in revenue annually[1]. According to a
recent study, the region has the potential to generate an additional US$1
trillion in combined GDP by 2025 with a robust digital agenda[2]. In ASEAN, the
amount of cross-border bandwidth that is used has grown 45 times larger from
2005 to 2016. It is projected to increase by an additional nine times by 2021
as flows of information, searches, communication, video, transactions, and
intra-company traffic continue to surge[3].

The digital integration of ASEAN will promote
rapid growth of the digital economy, including safe and smart city solutions,
to stimulate economic development and inform social intelligence. As ASEAN sets
the stage for a single digital economy to harness its full economic potential,
it is crucial for key players within the ICT sector to collaborate and
contribute to the robust infrastructure necessary to accelerate ASEAN’s growth.

connected future.”

Randy Roberts, Research Director at IDC, shared in his keynote speech, entitled
“Regional ASEAN ICT Development – Towards a Single Unified Digital Economy”,
that businesses in Asia Pacific have made progress in advancing digital
maturity, but most of them are in the “Digital Explorer” stage, where digitally
enabled customer experiences and products are inconsistent and poorly integrated.
However, signs of a potential rise in the number of enterprises embarking on
digital transformation signal an opportunity for key players in the region.

Huawei is dedicated to working with partners
across industries to empower their digital transformation and enrich their
services to thrive in the new ICT era. As a case in point, Huawei is working
with Converge, an ISP partner in the Philippines, to build an innovative
next-generation network. Converge’s legacy network had too many layers with an unclear
architecture, affecting the fast rollout and configuration of new services.
Huawei created a three-year network construction solution and formulated a
service deployment plan so that Converge’s new network is elastic, simple, and
future-oriented to adapt to new services.
