Abstract :

As an integrated region, Southeast Asia is not digitally connected. It is indicated by the level of digital divide between Singapore as the most developed country and other countries in this region. Consequently, digital communication still unable to work smoothly and affects regional interconnectivity. This is a problem explored in this article and based on the research, it is found that the problem is caused by inappropriate government policy and the low level of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita of the most people in the region. Government policy is correlated to the failure of decision makers to build adequate and equal telecommunication infrastructure networks in all areas. Moreover, the low level of income has caused people unable to buying technology devices such as personal computer and smartphone, as well as subscribing internet access.
