This paper tries to measure the spill-over effect of the production and investment of telecommunication service industry (hereafter telecommunication industry), using the most recent data of 2003 input-output tables. The results are summarized as follows. First, the industries which have the biggest spill-over effect from the production of telecommunication industry is miscellaneous business service (including the sale commission of telecommunication service), other engineering services (including royalty), and business consumption. Second, the production of telecommunication industry induces more value-added, and less production, less import, and less employment than related industries such as radio and television equipment, communications and broadcasting equipment, and computer and peripheral equipment. Third, while the investment of telecommunication service amounts to 15% of its production, the effect of the investment on production, value-added, consumption, and employment reaches 70% of that of its production. The policy implication of this paper is that the telecommunication industry contributes to overall economy mainly through its investment.

Following the trend of global telecommunication liberalization, the telecommunication industry in Taiwan will be a star industry and grow up quickly in the future. This study uses questionnaires to survey the implementation issues of total quality management in Taiwan's telecommunication industry. Most of the thirty-nine telecommunication companies surveyed herein are medium-sized with fairly weak quality performance. Advanced quality management training programs (such as experimental design) are seldom implemented and decision-makers do not pay much attention to training programs related to TQM.

In this study, we estimate the multi-service cost function of Korea Telecom in order to characterize the cost structure of the telecommunication industry in Korea. By examining the cost function of Korea Telecom, we show that telecommunication costs of Korea Telecom are subadditive. Therefore, we conclude that a natural monopoly exists in the telecommunication industry in Korea.

This review examines the rapid growth of qualitative and quantitative of telecommunication industry for past couple of years from customer's viewpoint. Most of the telecommunication products were positioned in the market by the businesses and government's support, but the entity of telecommunication products were never interpreted from the user's viewpoint. Even though, various kinds of telecommunication services have been actively discussed by businesses, government, and IT professionals, it has not been sufficiently discussed by the marketing academia where they need to focus a lot on customer's utility. For the purpose of providing an insight of the telecommunication service marketing strategy, this study looked over old and new directions of growth, failure and evolution of services by focusing on two main pillar of communication business, which is high-speed internet and mobile phone service. Additionally, the research explains and mentions the limit and trend of the telecommunication service marketing, and the future research task that needs to be solved.

In Korea we didn't have fundamental legal system on telecommunication until 'Communication Act'(Act No. 923) of Dec. 1961. After then, with rapid advances of technology and increases of request to telecommunication services in the field of telecommunication, circumstances around the telecommunication market have been changed. The market has been enlarged and slowed. Regulating of that field has been diverse and complex, Specially, as WTO went into effect, it's been recognized that standardization is more important for correspond to openness and liberalization in the field of telecommunication. In our country, national industry standardization began with 'Industry Standard Act of 1961', but it put mainly importance in manufacturing standard or industry standard till 1980's. Telecommunication standardization began to be active as TTA was set up in 1989. Now regulating rules to telecommunication standard are including 'the Fundamental Act of Information Promotion', 'Telecommunication Act', 'Act relating to Telecommunication Network Use Promotion, etc:, 'Software Industry Advancement Act','Knowledge Information Resource Act'. In this paper, we will survey regulating rules to telecommunication standard and Produce the future proposal to that.

We examine the causal relationship between telecommunication standardization investment and the sale of telecommunication industry by using Granger causality model. Statistically, we show that telecommunication standardization investment precedes the sale of telecommunication industry. As a result we suggest that the investment on telecommunication standardization should be proceed to promote the sale of telecommunication industry.

In Korea, the transportation & telecommunication service industry is composed of public sector entities, such as public transportation and the postal service, and private sector entities. The public sector may be regulated in terms of pricing or is guaranteed a normal profit. Markup can be a subject for regulation. This paper is to set up the markup equation, estimate the industrial markup, and analyze the markup determinants by estimating the factor price elasticities of markup in the Transportation & Telecommunication industry. The factor price elasticities of markup were estimated to be -0.07 in wage rate, -0.45 in import price index, and -0.13 in interest rates. We suggest that import price and interest rate are major factors to be considered first of all in regulating the transportation & telecommunication industry.

This study examines the international competitiveness of the Korean information and telecommunication industry by using competitiveness index such as the RCA index, the Trade Specialization index, and the Total Factor Productivity. The results of this study show that the industry's competitiveness slightly decreases since 1995, but not its the total factor productivity. In conclusion, the industry has kept the competitiveness over all. Therefore, to keep or improve the competitiveness continuously, the industry is required the government's intensive investment and administrative support. And the industry should bring up by venture and small-medium-size-enterprises to have great economic impacts on other industries. Also, the increasing production and export promoting policy will be enhance the industry and improve nation's balance of trade.

The Korean mobile telecommunication service market is faced with a tremendous competitive period, in which the market is entering into the maturity stage with launching of the 3rd generation service and with introduction of mobile number portability. In general, it is more important to sustain the old customers than to attracting new customers, as the life cycle of an industry is entering the maturity stage in which the growth rate of new customers is decreasing gradually or becoming stagnant. Thus, mobile telecommunication business has to seek a way to maintain the existing customers instead of promoting new customers. So this study investigates whether the service quality of mobile telecommunication could have effects on the switching barrier of the industry. In order to test the hypothesis on the effects of service quality of mobile telecommunication in Korea on switching barrier, this study collected the questionnaire response data of students including middle and high school students and undergraduates, who are regarded as the major customers in that mobile telecommunication industry.
