BBC published an interactive map showing the growth of broadband
connection from 1999 to 2011.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/8255695.stm

Canada seems to be the earliest country that the broadband is populized. In Asia, South Korea is the early bird, even earlier than Japan (Let’s utter a deep sigh for North Koreans).

It is really a great archievement for China – although until now maybe just around 10% of inhabitants in China are using broadband, don’t forget that means more than 100 million… while at the same time let’s sigh again out a greater thing in China: GFW.

Plus, see the submarine broadband cables, Hong Kong is definitely a hub of communication to the world, as it has always been for more than 100 years.
