Alternative explanation: Romania is a comparatively teeny tiny country so the necessary infrastructure costs are a fraction of what they would be here.

Or: see the UK and Netherlands, where government regulation improved service by forcing more competition in the broadband market [1], i.e. exactly the opposite of your "regulated to death" claim.

In all three of those examples, increased competition seems to have been the real explanation for reduced prices and improved service, not deregulation as you claim.
