Korea ranking no.1 menyediakan internet berkelajuan tinggi

Korea Selatan merupakan negara paling top dalam penyediaan internet berkelajuan tinggi kerana menduduki tangga teratas dalam penyediaan muat turun paling laju di dunia. Kemudian diikuti Negara Romania, Bulgaria, Lithuania dan Latvia. Ini berdasarkan kajian yang dijalankan oleh badan pengendali network antarabangsa iaitu Panda Network.

Manakala Amerika pula yang merupakan pelopor kepada kemajuan teknologi komunikasi dan network serta negara pembekal perisian utama dunia menduduki tangga yang ke-26. Berikut adalah senarai ranking muat turun internet paling laju di dunia :-

1. Korea - 2,202 (KBps)
2. Romania - 1,909 (KBps)
3. Bulgaria - 1,611(KBps)
4. Lithuania - 1,462(KBps)
5. Latvia -1,377(KBps)
6. Jepun - 1,364(KBps)
7. Sweeden - 1,234(KBps)
8. Ukhraine - 1,190(KBps)
9. Denmark - 1,020(KBps)
10.Hong Kong - 992(KBps)

The average worldwide download speed is 580KBps, placing the U.S. only slightly ahead of the pack with an average speed of 616KBps. While South Korea leading the list with a blazingly fast average speed of 2,202KBps may not come as much of a surprise, the small eastern European nations of Romania (1,909KBps) and Bulgaria (1,611KBps) unexpectedly claimed the second and third highest speeds. In fact, eastern European nations dominated the top of the list with Lithuania in fourth at 1,462KBps, Latvia in fifth at 1,377KBps and Ukraine in eighth at 1,190KBps. The completion rate for measured downloads closely correlates with average speed, South Korea again taking top prize with a 94% completion rate and most of the other speedy countries not far behind.

The other end of the list is fairly unsurprising; developing nations in Africa and Asia trail far behind the speeds of those with more mature economies. The Congo has the absolute slowest average speed at 13KBps, followed closely by the Central African Republic at 14KBps and Comoros at 23KBps. Other notable countries studied include Germany at 647KBps, Australia at 348KBps, and China at 245KBps. 

The study goes on to break down the data to the city level, the fastest six of which are, unsurprisingly, located in South Korea. Andover, MA (2,801KBps) and Bucharest, Romania (2,665KBps) are the only cities outside of gaming heavyweight South Korea to break into the top 10. The slowest measured city was Algiers, Algeria at 56KBps followed by Itapema, Brazil at 61KBps and Santa Cruz, Bolivia at 62
