Alan Kohler has admitted he was wrong when he supported the rudd/conroy nbn.And if anyone is suggesting the lease with tls is the main problem in selling nbn imo they r very naive.
TLS infrastructure could b ipo.d whatever,the value was always there and this infrastructure was never the problem and will never b the problem.
Again the wannabee teoh's/trujillo's,rudd and conroy said they will sell nbn as per their strong business understanding.
The problem in selling nbn is simply it never made any sense.No business plan/business model was ever submitted for analysis which would have taken into account tls infrastructure lease,the cost to install fibre etc,the time to roll out and the benefits to the economy.
Nope just rudd and conroy thought a great idea and convinced nearly every voter.
The only analysis was a $25m rudd funded mckinsey report that 'surprisingly' said great idea.
Had infrastructure australia or the productivity commission being involved imo they would have said it absolutely makes no sense to connect 93% premises to fibre,its beyond extravagant just stupid.
I',m not going into coalition nbn because imo it was dropped in their lap and was extremely political.

nbn is what happens when politics and infrastructure mix,nbn A $50B TO $100B mistake,and again due to politics/voters the $50b plus, because still not costed, submarine project when for less than $27b with delivery dates we could get 10 virgina class nuclear attack subs that could b serviced in the US until our dh govts decide we should have a nuclear carbon free industry supplying cheap energy and servicing our subs at the same time.
And who knows the final cost and delivery of nbn and subs,answer no one.2 big mistakes imo
