At the opening forum of PT Expo China 2020, Liu Liehong, vice minister of Industry and Information Technology, said that China has built the world’s largest optical fiber and 4G network, with fixed and mobile broadband penetrating across the country, at network speed above global average, making 100+ mbps fiber a common choice. Faster progress has been made in the commercialization of 5G technology: more than 600,000 base stations and more than 150 million terminal connections are established.
According to Liu Liehong, today’s world is undergoing profound changes unseen in a century. The development pattern that features a domestic circulation and a domestic-international circulation is taking shape, which presents great opportunities to and greater demands on China’s communication industry. We must adopt a new vision for development and accelerate the high-quality development of the information and communication industry from a new starting point.
