Landline telephones The bar chart indicates changes in the number of landline telephones per 1000 people in the range of countries between 2000 and 2004.

The majority of countries hit the trough in 2004 with almost zero telephone users in Lao PDR, Indonesia and Thailand and peaked in 2000 with approximately 450 people in Singapore.

The highest rate of landline telephone per 1000 users was recorded in two countries: Brunei Darussalam with its peak in 2002 of 250 landline telephones and Singapore with its peak in 2000 of almost 450 landline telephones per 1000 people in the period of 5 years.

In contrast, Cambodia and Vietnam showed reversed trend by steady growth up to about 50 users of landline telephones per 1000 people from 2000 to 2004.

On balance, all the remained countries indicate relatively low rate in the same period not overcoming 100 users of landline telephones per 1000 people.
