Change the NBN plan now

Comments on Andrew Harris “Bringing NBN investment undone”, 7/02/2011, http://www.businessspectator.com.au/bs.nsf/Article/NBN-Co-business-case-wireless-Gillard-Yasi-pd20110204-DQVU4?OpenDocument&src=sph

It is high time for the government to drastically change its NBN plan to a much more economically competitive one.

It should go back to the initial plan of to the nods before the current NBN concept to homes.

It should leave to the private sector for the rest part of any connection to homes using whatever the most competitive technologies are. It may be a combination of fibre to the home for some, or use the existing copper to the homes, or wireless with newly built fibre infrastructure as the its support, or even use the newly built fibre infrastructure for a small area wireless facilities, as well as use satellite wireless.

What this means is that it should only proceed with a flexible plan of fibre for the long haul and backbone infrastructure.

If Labor continues with its current NBN plan, it will waste tens of billions taxpayers money. That is not only extremely irresponsible, but also border to economically criminal behaviour.

For that matter, politicians who continue to support the current NBN plan in the federal parliament will be equally guilty.
