In the latest report by InternetworldStats, the Philippines took the #10 spot with the most number of internet users at 14 Million, just 900k lower than Malaysia at #9.
That number represents 15.1% of the total population of the Philippines {via}. That’s still a low internet usage density though.
China tops the list at 253 Million followed by Japan at 94 Million and India at 60 Million.
As for internet penetration, the Philippines is still way down the line, esp. in South East Asia:
Japan: 73.8%
South Korea: 70.7%
Hong Kong: 69.5%
Taiwan: 67.2%
Malaysia: 59%
Singapore: 58.6%
Macau: 51.6%
Brunei: 46.2%
Vietnam: 23.4%
Thailand: 20.5
Philippines: 15.1%
What’s surprising again is that Vietnam (86M), which has almost the same population as the Philippines (92M), has higher number of users and internet penetration.
No wonder why Vietnam took the top spot in SEA during the Firefox 3 Download Day.
