ASEAN can utilise India’s telecom expertise: Sinha
Manoj Sinha said that India is willing to provide long term financing to ASEAN members for buying Indian products and services. India’s expertise in taking affordable technologies to remote corners can be leveraged by ASEAN countries in their rollout of digital connectivity initiatives, Union Minister Manoj Sinha said today.

“We look forward to being your preferred partner in your digital connectivity initiatives...I can assure you, we will do whatever is required, for Indian products and services to become the first choice for your telecom needs,” he said at a gathering of telecom representatives from ASEAN countries organised by Telecom Equipment and Services Export Promotion Council (TEPC). Citing flagship programs such as Digital India, Make in India and Bharat Net broadband project, the Minister of Communications said, ”...the experience of taking technology to remote corners at affordable price, can be leveraged by you to provide cost—effective communications solutions in your home countries... with our experience and expertise it will be easy for you to achieve targets,” he said.

The minister further pointed out that as announced earlier, India is also willing to provide long term financing to Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) members for buying Indian products and services. “Mobile technology, products and services from India come with best security, and high quality...you can rely on Indian telecom products,” he said.

India isn't known globally as a reliable and high quality telecom provider so this self-boasting won't work if you don't have a global reputation. LOL

India 2 late to the Competition. India hope to catch the manufacture train already left the station.

Make in India when the wave of protectionism on the raise across the developed world. Many nation want to retreat from globalism and stop outsourcing to third world country.

Transition to robot will reduce major work force in the developed world but allow company to stay competitiveness in the industry.

Robotic revolution, global climate change deal, and an increasing awareness of protectionism make it extremely difficult for India to realize their dream. I, too, afraid the ship had sailed.

In this particular case, they obviously want to market their whatever technology know how they have for the Made in India scheme but I doubt the ASEAN will bite without substances. Like I said, India isn't a reliable technological partner. They are a after-service country, the call center type provider rather than hardware provider.

They have to compete with Korea, Japan, US, and China for the telecom market share. It gonna squeeze all they have for a tiny profit with no market share.

India expertise??? I've heard from media around 1 year ago that even in New Delhi, mobiphone can only be used in some parts of the house, since the signal is too weak.

Asean is far more developed than India in this area. The situation above is unimaginable even in poor countries like Laos or Cambodia.

In addition, what telecom equipment can India manufacture? Even when manufacture means assembly from Chinese-made components?

The India media (and Indian leaders too) cannot be serious, I believe. Indian people seem to be addicted to self-praised articles, hence they say and publish such things year-after-year-after-year.

Vietnam exports to India mostly manufactured products, like electronics, steel, equipment/tools and imports from them cotton, pharmaceutical products and animal feed material, but in Indian media some years ago (by a PDF member), it appeared that Vietnam imported high-tech products from India and exported raw material.

Modi can give free telecom service to ASEAN and on top of another free USD 5billion to every countries. I am sure some taker will bite it.

Paying money to boast ego sounds like a good deal to India

Basically, Indian government is talking to itself and, in this monologue, is, unsurprisingly, in agreement with itself.

Can anyone name an Indian telcom company of significance?

Wow, bunch of useless numbers that have no relation to the topic been discussed. Give yourself a pat on the back.

Telecom industry are dominated by Chinese, American and Swedish companies. Fun fact, Tata's core network in India uses Huawei routers

Hindu Telecom a big player? I think we need to rinse our eyes from any dirt and re-read the title again because you've gotta be kidding here. Oh well by now everybody shouldn't be surprised that Indians are one of the most delusional people on Earth.

Welcome, my friend.

Some Indians are sometimes just too delusional, and fact-less.

My friend, why are you trying to make us, Indians, a laughing stock?

India has no expertise over and above other countries in the region, specially not above China.

India produces virtually no telecom equipment.

The top telecom equipment suppliers are Huawei, Ericsson, and Nokia.

Don't even talk about Reliance.

Reliance is basically a big ZERO in technology.

It basically orders technology from abroad.

Mukesh Ambani personally went to Huawei's head office in Shenzhen to negotiate the deal to supply equipment for his Jio project.
