Here's what could badly hurt Singapore telcos' mobile revenue in 2013

Even as revenue rose 2.5%.

According to CIMB, 1Q13 mobile revenue grew a faster 2.5% yoy mainly due to subscriber growth and data monetisation through the tiered data plans.

"However, ARPUs could come under pressure from lower roaming revenue because of lower roaming rates with Malaysia and users’ avoidance of data roaming, choosing instead to buy local SIM cards in the countries they travel to," CIMB said.
