Article Abstract:
Nielsen/NetRatings has reported that South Korean Internet surfers logged an average of 2,164 page views in March 2001, of 92 page views per session. the global average is 774 pages in March for a 43 page views per session. However, Koreans spend just 28 seconds per page view, the least amount of time, in part because the pages download faster over broadband networks than over regular phone lines. In other parts of the world, Hong Kong had 1,123 page views in March, vs 788 for Japan (February data), 699 in Singapore, 678 in the United States, and 618 in Taiwan.

City residents are first in using online public services
Article Abstract:
About 31% of the people of Hong Kong have used the internet to access government information or to provide information to the government, according to a study by Taylor Nelson Sofres, placing Hong Kong in 6th place, behind Norway, Denmark, Canada, Finland and the US. Paying for government services online is slightly below the average in other developed nations, partly because access to markets is so convenient in Hong Kong, not because people are afraid to use the internet for financial transactions.
