China Unicom sells off CDMA arm to China Telecom
By Wang Xing (China Daily)
Updated: 2008-07-29 15:21 He said the company hopes to increase the subscriber base of CDMA from the current 43.17 million to 100 million in the next three years, aiming to take up 15 percent of the country's wireless market. The government announced its plan to overhaul the telecom industry in May, in the hope of creating a more competitive telecom industry. The government later promised to issue licenses for 3G (third generation) mobile telephony as soon as the restructuring was completed. According to government figures, China has the world's most cell phone users, with the number of subscribers surpassing 600 million by the end of last month.
China Mobile's only rival, China Unicom, has not been a serious challenger as it struggled to operate two competing networks. Nearly a third of China Unicom's employees will also be transferred to China Telecom as part of the deal, according to the company. |
