报告摘要：

There have been much research and technological development activities on Photonics and Optical Communication Research in Singapore in recent years. The continuous inflow of private investment breeds confidence in the environment for the industry. The government gives great support for the research activities and the universities and research institutes have established excellent research infrastructure for performing advanced academic research and technology development. We are currently moving the test bed out of lab, into the real world. This would mark a next step into realising wide deployment of optical access network to individuals and businesses.
