Business Trends: An Update
(For Indonesia, Singapore and Tokyo)
By Bidz dela Cruz

This is a look at what's going on inside the business sector of three of the nation's of Asia, and have a good comparison of their industry as well.
Indonesia: Indonesia is emerging from a period of inner turmoil after the fall of Suharto and a successful change to democracy. It remains to be the promising powerhouse of the Asean group with its vast human and mineral resources. In Jakarta, Indonesia's telecom industry is not only growing, but also rapidly diversifying. More and more new individuals join the cellular bandwagon. From 23 million people a year ago, there are 35 million now, opting to buy their first handphone, whether it be brand-new or second-hand.
On the other side of the telecommunications paradigm, despite the fact that the on-line gaming market in Indonesia is admittedly at its infant stage, recent knowledge and undertakings signify that it has started to move on to it's adolescent stage, making a mark in the gaming industry. One of the latest studies has showed some trends present in the Indonesian on-line gaming industry, specifically in the areas of on-line games and service providers, which are likely to affect gamer-base evolution and it's growing market share.
Singapore: On the neighboring area, Singapore has a few business updates to boast as well. With regards to its tourism business traffic, the "Opportunities in Singapore Tourism Industry (2007-2009)" report gives an in-depth analysis of the current outline and future prospects. It's focal point is the discussion on different areas of Singapore tourism industry today: Inbound Tourism, Outbound Tourism, Expenditure by Inbound Tourists, expenditure by Outbound Tourists, medical tourism, transportation facilities, and accommodation facilities.
Another update, on a different industry this time, Singaporeans can now surf the Net on a bus. Nokia has provided free wireless high-speed Internet on 12 popular bus routes which started on November 9 of this year (2007). Commuters can handily use their mobile phones or laptops which can access wirelessly into the Internet.
Tokyo: Tokyo is one of the most interesting and exciting cities in the world. A capital of Japan, it is always full of tourists who looks for the latest electric and electronic product all over the world. Seated over the world's second largest economy, Tokyo is the governmental, financial and administrative centre of Japan. It has continued to be the leader in trends and technology.
Living up to its reputation, Tokyo has launched a new electronic gadget for the techi- addicts. A groundbreaking new recording medium from the televisual entertainment, Hitachi MS-DS400 DVD/HDD video recorder
is Hitachi’s new DVD recorder. It does not only handles all formats of DVD disc, but it is also equipped with a jumbo 400Gb hard drive which is available in any convenient store or corner store in town. The rest of the feature-set makes this device a heavy hitter in the lucrative DVD/HDD market: The high-end specs translate to the DS400 which handles 67 hours of video storage at the highest quality before forcing you to dump to DVD or delete, although it falls short insignificantly in that its ability to network video to other devices has been limited as compared to its earlier low models.
All three tycoons in business are battling it out to gain popularity once more in Asia's market share, whether business be in Electronic Technology, Tourism, etc.. The rest is yest to be seen.
