dc.description.abstractABSTRACT: With appearance of today’s technology the way of communication has also changed. In this regard, mobile telephones have become one of the most important services in recent years. Therefore, mobile network providers play an important role as a prerequisite in connection with the point previously mentioned. This study deals with the establishment of a mobile network in Hang Dong, a remote area located in the province of Chiang Mai, Thailand. It discusses why the service is applicable to Hang Dong in terms of its necessity and costs. Financial, sensitivity and risk analysis of the proposed project has been done. The financial analysis confirmed the project viability in aggregate as it yields a positive financial NPV but pointed out some difficulties in the ability of servicing the debt. The risks arose from the proportion of local telephone calls, decrease in project market share, domestic inflation rate, growth in real income, decrease in local and international telephone call tariffs and pointed out some important issues and gave an enormous help in spotting the possible problems that the project may face which in turn, have an adverse impact on the financial feasibility. Various measures must be taken to reduce the exposure to these risks and to help future projects into better and more improved project design.

Projede görülen riskler yerli telefon görüşmeleri, projenin pazar payı, enflasyon oranı, reel gelir büyümesi, yerel telefon aramalarının fiyatlarında düşüş ve projenin yaşayabilirliğini engelleyebilecek başka önemli konular ele alınmıştır. Bu riskleri azaltmak için bazı önemli tedbirler alınmalıd ve ilerdeki projelerin gelişmiş proje tasarımlarıyla daha iyi durumda olmaları sağlanmalıdır.
