It can be observed from the chart that there was steady rise in the minutes spent in National and international Landline and Mobiles whereas, same cannot be said for Local-Landline as it had upward trend till later years when it suddenly started falling. In the bar graph, it can be seen that even though Local-Landlines had a head start with 12000 million minutes in 1995, it stayed the same at the end year 2004. It reached 17000 million in 2001 which is the highest in the entire graph. As for National and international landline, it had much less startup with 6000 million in 1995 eventually reaching its peak at the end of the timeline 2004 with more than 10000 million minutes. Even in its peak it was not able to outrun the lowest point of local-landline. But, it did not decline except for a momentary stabilization in 1999 and 2000 unlike Local-landlines which fell after its peak by more than 5000 million. Now, in the context of mobiles, it actually had almost 0 minutes in its initial year 1995 but it soared by more than 10 times to almost 10000 million minutes in its peak and final year 2004 slightly lesser than National and international landline. It had the lowest minutes in every year followed by National and international landline and Local-landlines respectively which dominated the other two in the entire graph.
