Hong Kong BroadBand Network http://www.hkbn.net/

In November 2004, HKBN launched their bb100 plan which offers symmetric 100 Mbps to subscribers

    Hong Kong Broadband Network on Tuesday unveiled a new 100Mbps broadband service it claims is the fastest for residential users in Hong Kong. The company also demonstrated a premium one gigabit per second service that will be available by the second quarter of next year."

    "However, users paying the $268 per month will benefit from the 100Mbps bandwidth only when browsing local-based content - for international content the bandwidth is limited to 20Mbps. Users wanting the full 100Mbps bandwidth for international access will have to pay $1,980 per month."

    "With HKBN's new super-fast services upload and download speeds are the same."

All prices are in Hong Kong Dollars. HK$7.8 = US$1.0.

So for US$ 34 a month, you can get 20Mbps international bandwidth from your home
So far rollout seems to be limited to mass housing estates which have the population density.
