China to Witness Rapid Expansion in Telecom Market

October 1, 1999 (SHANGHAI) -- The household telephone penetration rate in China
is expected to rise from 12 percent at present to 22 percent, and the fixed line users
will increase from 100 million to around 180 million by 2003.

Wu Jichuan, Minister of Information Industry, said that the main expansion areas of
the household telephones will be the vast rural areas and the western region.

He added that the mobile phone users will increase from 36 million now to 100 million
by 2003. China will also actively promote the use of the Internet. In 2003, China is
expected to witness about 20 million Internet users, up from 4 million today.

To reach these goals, he said, the country will have a constitutional framework for
introducing a competitive mechanism and opening the telecommunications market.

Wu said China will also incorporate effective international management principles
into the country's telecommunications industry, including the public offerings of
telecommunications companies, in order to enter the global financial market.
