The progress made in Thai telecom market sectors is different, with mobile industry being the most developed part. There has been a long way towards market liberalization in the country, and the event happened only in mid-2000s, with the introduction of new regulatory authority. Until the moment telecommunications market was totally regulated by the government, which, however, had seen a great perspective in it, allowing significant investments to be put in. State-owned communication companies, TOT and CAT, were the sole players in the industry. For the present moment the market is more or less liberalized, but the condition of fixed-lines and their diversity remains poor. Due to this reason mobile technologies have largely substituted fixed-line phones in people's everyday life. But the demand for Internet connectivity made the government make an input into copper-line development, so the sector has started progressing steadily. Mobile market is nearly mature, with over 90% penetration for 2G services. Currently, the size of subscriber base is equal to over 59 million users, with a considerable part of them owning more than one SIM-card. When competition showed itself in the industry, customers have tried to benefit from different plans and rates offered by mobile operators. 3G technology has not yet been launched in Thailand, due to the government's slow reaction, but the event is, however, on the way. As for data services, the main profit for companies here remains in SMS and mobile money, with data technologies poorly developed.

As opposite to fixed-line market, mobile sector remains competitive, with introduction of new mobile operators. Advanced Info Service (AIS) is the largest mobile operator in the country, having 44% of market share in its possession. However, the company is challenged by several competitors, the most dangerous are DTAC and True Move which are eager to consolidate their positions. The newcomers, Hutchison CAT and TA-Orange are also there to increase the competition and quality of services offered. Internet market has been represented by dial-up technology for a long time. But with the government making its regulatory policies reasonable, it's now possible for contemporary broadband technologies to develop. As many service providers are continually investing sources into infrastructure, the market is showing a great perspective. WiMAX introduction is also on the way, offering an alternative for fixed-line connection.
