This weekend I watched a travel blog to the Maldives, and the country 
developed a new tourist city by dredging dirt and sand from the ocean and
building a new city on it.  The big draw is when the city was built, gigabit
fiber was ran everywere.  In reality the reviewer discovered it is not
operational everywhere due to the price the provider charges for gigabit
access.  The telco or development partner who ran the fiber is monopolized,
so they charge ridiulous prices knowing there is no alternative matching their
 speed.
