Turkey's Got the Most Expensive Broadband

OECD has just released its telecommunications report and here's a bit that should surprise no one living in Turkey.

As I watch the campaigns for the upcoming elections (which look to be critical in that the results will determine if the current polarization of the country will continue), I hear very little from the politicians in how they will focus on the added-value Turkey generates in its economy.  Information technology is a relatively small part of the Turkish economy, but knowing that the high price of telecommunications is largely due to taxes, it's discouraging to see that we are now at the bottom of the list.
