In many developing countries in the region, ICT infrastructure is progressing faster than health-care infrastructure. For instance, 89 per cent of the region's population has access to mobile phone networks; 3.2 billion people use the internet; and 1.8 billion people use a high-speed broadband mobile phone service. Mobile phone technologies and services made up 5.4 per cent of the Asia-Pacific GDP in 2016, equivalent to $1.3 trillion in economic value.
