The Swedish government is following in the footsteps of the Finns (well almost), as their IT-ministry is now promising that 90 percent of all Swedish homes will have access to a 100 mbit/s broadband connection before 2020.

According to Swedish IT-minister Åsa Torstensson it isn’t possible to function in the information society of today without a fast internet connection. You hear that? This is the information society, people!

The Swedish government is therefore launching a new broadbrand strategy, according to which there needs to be a set minimum level of broadband speed.L33tdawg: Meanwhile, half way around the world, the Malaysian government on the other hand sees 1 Mbps as their minimum criteria for 'SUPER FAST' broadband. W T F - maybe I should move to Sweden :)
