The price level has remained the same the past 5-6 years, but speed has gone up from 10/3 to 150/50 for the same monthly payment. Last year the 150/50 price level offering was 100/20 instead.
I can attest to this as I saw exactly the same thing in Malaysia, and more so after I've been away these past couple of years. The company I worked for at the time started rolling our GPON with the top speed at 50Mbps for several hundred RM/month back in 2010. 9 years later, they are selling 1Gbps @ RM99/month. I suppose we can choke it down to the cost of living in the North Western hemisphere being what it is, or some such reason :-). Mark.
