| Note: Electronic business services
accessed by electronic devices other than the internet have been around
much longer than the internet has been popular. Thus, their usage
patterns are both higher and more stable, but usage itself is still
growing. The immensely popular Octopus card is a case in point. |

| Note: The industry for electronic
business services accessed through the internet is still very young and
highly competitive, this can explain the high level of volatility and
rapid growth rates in some areas of business such as online searches
for goods and services (not necessarily purchases), cyber banking and
online payments (settlements) for utilities and other regularly
scheduled payments. Making online reservations also appears to an
electronic business activity well-suited for the internet. |
