1. Why NGN ?
Separation btw. Services and Transport
• Key Feature of IP : Anything over IP, IP over Everything • Most of Services using IP as their connection platform • Most of Networks supporting transport of IP packet
• IP plays a key role to separate Services with Transport
(Any/All Applications e.g. voice , data , video)

1. Why NGN ?
Impacts to Policy and Regulation base
• NGN provide a platform separating Services with Transport • Politics and Regulation environment would be impacted with this
• Current Vertical environment would be changed to Horizontal env.

3. Key Features
Definition & Features of NGN
Definition of NGN (Draft Rec. Y.2001) A NGN is a packet-based network able to provide telecommunication services and able to make use of multiple broadband, QoS-enabled transport technologies and in which service-related functions are independent from underlying transport-related technologies. It offers unrestricted access by users to different service providers. It supports generalized mobility which will allow consistent and ubiquitous provision of services to users.

4. Future Issues
Standards for Near Generation, not Next
NGN stands for Next Generation, but targeted for Near Generation NGN could be value added framework for all players : Users, Operators, Providers and Regulators etc. NGN could be evolved from Current Generation Network NGN could be basement for making convergence world (real Telecommunication World) NGN Standards could be Globalize rather than Localize boosting global village and shorten digital divide ITU-T could be centre of NGN standards
