On July 24th, 2007 Digicel’s launch in Papua New Guinea marked the end of a fifty year monopoly in the telecommunications market in Papua New Guinea.  According to the Government's 2008 Budget presentation, Digicel has already contributed to 0.7% growth of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of Papua New Guinea.  In 2009 an AusAid economic Report suggested that that GDP increase figure was now 2.5%
