自1985年NTT私有化并引入竞争以来，日本电信市场经历了巨大的变化。长途电话服务的费率下调幅度很大，NTT在长途电话市场的收入份额急剧下降。移动的业务和互联网业务的增长是划时代的，而POTS正在出现衰落的迹象。在这背后，是放宽管制以纠正市场结构扭曲的进展。最重要的成果是建立新的互连规则和NTT重组为一家长途公司和两家地区公司。随着这一放松管制，日本电信业有望从有管理的竞争发展到充分竞争。然而，随着竞争和新的多媒体服务的发展，电信监管面临着新的挑战。其中之一就是普遍服务。监管机构、运营商、用户和学者之间的合作需要适应这一变化。
The Japanese telecommunications market has experienced drastic changes since the privatization of NTT and the introduction of competition in 1985. Rate reduction in long distance services has been remarkable, and NTT's revenue share in the long distance market has declined sharply. The growth in mobile services and Internet services are epoch-making, and POTS is showing signs of decline. Behind the scenes is the progress of deregulation in remedying the distortion in the market structure. The establishment of new interconnection rules and the reorganization of NTT into one long distance company and two regional companies are the most important outcomes. With this deregulation the Japanese telecommunications industry is expected to develop from managed competition to full competition. However, new challenges for telecommunications regulation are emerging with the progress of competition and new multimedia services. One of them is the universal service. Cooperation among regulators, operators, users, and scholars is required to accommodate the change.
