Aran Islands lie between Inisheer and Dublin on the west coast. For Sean O’Flannagáin broadband connection is more than a luxury. He has set up an investment management firm Kinsale capital Management and depends on high speed broadband connectivity to run his business.

Sean O’Flannagain said that, “When we decided to set up the business, we knew that dependable, high-speed broadband was imperative.” He also added that, “It wasn’t just a matter of having access to e-mail and the internet; we’re increasingly using cloud computing so we need to access data remotely.”

Last November wireless broadband arrived to this remote islands and this made O’Flannagáin to start his business in Inisheer. Government has planned to bring out high speed broadband connectivity in remote places where it lacks. Mobile operator 3 Ireland took the contract and delivered the services to area which were not covered by broadband services. The total investment costed €223 million in which €80 million was provided by the customers. For a 15gb data customers are charged €19.99 and for installation and connection a fee of €49.

The Australian Government has announced recently that they would be setting up a high speed broad band service to all its customers through National Broadband Network (NBN). Mr. Abbott, the leader of opposition said that, “I do not think a $43 billion broadband network is necessary, it is merely a recreation of the nationalized telecommunication company”

Federal member of Barker, Mr.Secker said that, “This is just another example of the incompetence of this Labour government.” He also quoted that, “Labour went to the last election promising 99 per cent coverage for $4.7 billon, not the 43 billion they are talking about now, We said it wouldn’t work and we were right”

Tony, the spokes man of opposite communication said that, “the Coalition would scrap the NBN and replace it with a different and more responsible scheme.”
But Mr. Secker said that, “We were covering virtually every Australian with our system at a lot more efficient cost and without the philosophical problems that Labour with private enterprise delivering something that can be dome far better than government, We had system in place that was going to work quite well,”

Conroy, the communications minister said that, “Australia has the third most expensive and slowest broadband for small businesses across the whole Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development”.
But Australia’s National Broad Band Network (NBN) would benefit thousands of citizens by providing high speed broadband at affordable rates.
