The Chinese telecom market is the largest in the world. China is making real strides in becoming an advanced telecommunications market. With the mobile sector still expanding at over 18% going into 2008, the long-awaited licensing of 3G services is getting closer and will surely give the market yet another boost. There continues to be a major need for industry restructuring and government action is expected in conjunction with the issuing of 3G licences. Telecommunications development figures prominently in the nation’s priority scheme as China readies itself for the 2008 Beijing Olympics. This report presents a range of key statistical indicators and gives an overall picture of the Chinese telecom market, including market highlights and analyses from 2003 to 2007.
