Chinese telecom suppliers eye CDMA phone market Thursday, November 30, 2000 RAYMOND LI in Beijing Chinese telecommunications suppliers are positioning to take a third of the 60 billion yuan CDMA market when this new mobile phone technology becomes popular here, China Securities News reported Thursday, citing a high-ranking official with Shenzhen-based telecommunications equipment supplier ZTE Corp. CDMA, or code division multiple address, is a narrowband telecommunications protocol designed to make mobile phone reception more clear, more private and safer for the human brain. In October, China Unicom got approval from the Ministry of the Information Industry to offer this service, the newspaper reported. The ZTE official said the new service would attract 50 million customers over two years. Apart from ZTE Corp and Eastcom, three other Chinese companies are working on CDMA. They are Huawei in Shenzhen, Datang Telecom in Xi’an and Hisense in Qingdao. The article said Chinese suppliers might ultimately dominate overseas companies in the domestic CDMA mobile phone market. According to China Securities News, overseas telecommunications companies now command 97 per cent of the market. Also in the article, Shi Jixing, chairman of the Hangzhou-based telecommunications supplier Eastcom, said domestic companies had developed their own technologies to compete with overseas companies. Mr Shi said Eastcom started to develop CDMA in 1996 and has set up two joint ventures with Motorola to develop CDMA-based products. Mr Shi said Eastcom was shooting for half the mainland market. technology.scmp.com
