Rememeber: We're talking about a country that had to be bootstrapped after the fall of Soviet Union. They have had very little legacy (as in "old but not old enough to warrant a replacement") tech and legislation to deal with.

My personal favorite is their wireless PSTN: Take existing NMT technology and give people tabletop terminals that will accommodate ordinary analog phones.

I had a friend working in Indonesia in the 90s, on Sumbawa. He mentioned how the locals had DVD players, but they had skipped ever having VCRs. I wonder what it looks for them now. Are they all on streaming services, or do they still use 90s era DVD players. I wonder what Estonia will look like in 20 years.

Indonesia has incredible mobile penetration rates (133% this year), so odds are they're streaming.
