1 ASEAN AUSTRALIA DEVELOPMENT COOPERATION PROGRAM (AADCP) PHASE II TERMS OF REFERENCE FOR Study on Establishing an ASEAN Telecommunications Single Market Post-2015 The ASEAN Secretariat and the Australian Government, through AADCP II, invite applications from consultants for the above-referenced project. I. Background Information and Communications Technology (ICT) has played a critical role in supporting regional integration and connectivity efforts. As ASEAN forges ahead to further deepen economic integration and community building, ICT is expected to play an increasingly pivotal role. ICT, and in particular the Internet, has become a core part of the economy and embedded infrastructure, progressively underlying all aspects of socio-economic growth and development. ASEAN is now transitioning towards a digital economy. The creation of an integrated digital economy has gone beyond enabling connectivity and focusing on the exciting and disruptive developments. Increasingly, all sectors of the economy are adopting and embedding ICT and fostering economy-wide growth and innovation. Thus, the ASEAN ICT Masterplan ( ) (AIM 2020), which was approved by Ministers at the 15 th ASEAN Telecommunications and Information Technology Ministers Meeting, held in Viet Nam in November 2015, is focused on enabling transformation to the digital economy and developing the human capacity necessary for this transition, facilitating the emergence of a single integrated market that is attractive to investment, talent and participation, and building a digital environment that is safe and trusted. "Multiple ICT Opportunities across a Single Regional Market" is one of the five expected outcomes of the AIM This project is part of initiative 6.2 in the AIM, which promotes an open market for ICT enterprises/ products. A single integrated market is required in order for the telecommunications industry in ASEAN to survive the major shift towards data-heavy and always-connected services demand. It will encourage the industry to reinvent its business model, supporting a move away from vertical bundling of services towards contract-based relationships and horizontal consolidation of operators, including resource sharing amongst service providers. This is driven by the need to achieve better economy of scale as well as to reduce capital expenditures and operational costs, which will result in lowering the costs for consumers. Good economy of scale would also attract more investment, especially for new technology in the sector. In some cases, economies of scale can only be reached if horizontal consolidation amongst service providers goes beyond state borders, e.g. regional consolidation. Regional consolidation would require harmonisation of standards, rules and regulations in the industry, which will be examined in this project. The need for a single market was put forward in the 2010 Master Plan on ASEAN Connectivity (MPAC), as a key strategy under the element of Institutional (Soft) Connectivity which includes: trade liberalisation and facilitation; standards and conformance; customs integration; investment liberalisation and facilitation; services liberalisation and Mutual Recognition Arrangements; regional transport agreements; and capacity building programmes. The key strategy to accelerate the development of an efficient and competitive logistics sector, in particular transport, telecommunications and other connectivity-related services in the region was proposed because the geographic breadth and efficiency of telecommunications infrastructure and cost competitiveness of telecommunications services in a number of ASEAN countries left much to be desired. The strategy calls for a more liberalised and competitive environment to encourage more investment and technology improvements for telecommunications in Page 1 of 9
2 the region. This strategy will be implemented by undertaking a feasibility study of an ASEAN Telecommunications Single Market Beyond 2015, as one of MPAC s measures. It is anticipated that the study will help ASEAN identify potential areas for liberalisation, from the perspective of telecommunications regulations, examine the challenges/issues faced by ASEAN Member States in liberalising telecommunication markets, and suggest strategies to address the challenges/issues. In efforts to establish regional harmonisation of the telecommunications industry, ASEAN sectoral bodies have conducted several studies on a number of telecommunications-related policies and regulations such as spectrum (frequency bands) allocation, mobile roaming charges reduction, over the top (OTT) service regulation, passive telecommunications infrastructure sharing and telecommunications convergence, to identify best practices among ASEAN countries and other regions. However, to date, no specific study on the barriers to market integration and the approaches to overcome them has been conducted. It is therefore important to conduct a feasibility study for the establishment of the ASEAN Telecommunications Single Market. Specifically, it will: (a) undertake a review of current market structures, industry performance, interrelated trends, national initiatives, and international frameworks in the global and regional telecommunications industry; (b) describe the economic justification of regional telecommunications market integration (the "business case") and the existing barriers to the integration; (c) identify and recommend the possible pathways and roadmap that will support the establishment of a single telecommunications market and enable stakeholders of the ASEAN telecommunications industry to take advantage of the opportunities presented by the integrated market. The output of this study will be publicly available. The document will be disseminated at the annual ASEAN Telecommunications and Information Technology Ministerial Meeting (TELMIN) to ensure awareness among ASEAN policy makers of the collective efforts in establishing an ASEAN Telecommunications Single Market. A factsheet will be prepared for the private sector, to gather support for the establishment of the single market. Both documents will be made available through the ASEAN and AADCP II websites. II. Needs and Objectives It is envisaged that this study will lead to : - Establishment of policies and regulations, by Telecommunications and ICT Policy Makers and Regulators of all ASEAN Member States (AMS), that facilitates the establishment of the ASEAN Telecommunications Single Market, specifically those that address key issues and challenges faced by key stakeholders; - ASEAN telecommunications major industry players including regulators, network operators, service providers having a better understanding of the market risks and impact of an ASEAN Telecommunications Single market, current industry and regulatory readiness for the Single Market, and what actions will be required between now and 2020 to facilitate the establishment of the Single Market. III. Outputs The project will deliver the following outputs: 1. Feasibility Report on the Establishment of an ASEAN Telecommunications Single Market. This report will look at the current state of the ASEAN telecommunications industry, identify issues and challenges for the establishment of the Single Market, explore potential solutions to address these issues and challenges, and propose the most viable solution for ASEAN policy makers. Specifically, it will contain: a) A description of why a Telecommunications Single Market is needed for ASEAN to adapt to the new digital economy by 2020, with reference to case studies on Europe s Digital Single Market; b) An assessment of the economic gains, business considerations and consumer protection aspects Page 2 of 9
3 of establishing an ASEAN Telecommunications Single Market; c) An assessment of the market risks and impact of an ASEAN Telecommunications Single Market; d) An assessment of AMS regulatory and industry readiness for a Telecommunications Single Market, including analysis of key issues and challenges faced by ASEAN regulators as well as ASEAN telecommunications industry players, including regulators, network operators, service providers and consumers; e) Possible measures to address the key issues and challenges, containing sufficient detail so that ASEAN policy makers are aware of all of the viable potential solutions and able to decide on the best possible pathway to the establishment of the single market. 2. Roadmap to establish an ASEAN telecommunications single market. This roadmap will include regulatory recommendations, strategic actions, timeline and key performance indicators (KPIs) for establishing an ASEAN telecommunications single market. The roadmap will be based on decisions made by ASEAN policy makers on the most viable measures as describe in point (1) above. It will clearly describe intended changes in the regulatory and institutional environment in the region by 2020, and identify strategic actions with a clear timeline and division of responsibilities for achieving those outcomes. 3. A factsheet highlighting key points of the feasibility report and roadmap, to inform the private sector. This factsheet will be drafted and designed to promote ownership and attract support from the private sector. It will be specific and succinct, written in layman language, and visually attractive. The feasibility report and the roadmap will be disseminated at an annual ASEAN Telecommunications and Information Technology Ministerial Meeting (TELMIN) to promote awareness among ASEAN policy makers of the collective effort required to establish an ASEAN Telecommunications Single Market. Both the full report and the factsheet will be made available through the ASEAN and AADCP II websites. Page 3 of 9
