Lebanon's president of the professional computer association has said that many foreign investors are reluctant to establish businesses in the country due to the low speed of broadband connectivity which affects their production capacity, the Daily Star has reported. The maximum speed of broadband in Lebanon is 2 megabits for a monthly subscription of $199 while in France the rate for the 100 megabits speed is $141, Gabriel Deek has said. 'Slow broadband connectivity in Lebanon is behind the success of Dubai in attracting business opportunities that should have come to Lebanon instead,' he said.
