JohnG -- Actually, you and slacker711 may both be correct. The 7 million subscriber number you cite is for China United Telecommications Corporation, which indirectly owns 77.47% of China Unicom Ltd. (NYSE: CHU) which has 4.491 million CDMA subscribers as of Dec 2002. Clearly, the China Unicom Ltd. (NYSE: CHU) website shows 4.491 million subs. chinaunicom.com.hk The organizational structure is described at chinaunicom.com.hk The shorthand name for China United Telecommications Corporation (not the Ltd. entity) is aka the "Unicom Group". If, while viewing the organizational structure, you click on the Unicom Group link, you get the China Unicom name again .. on the page .. and in the URL. Ramsey! Help! My head hurts. Is the name China Unicom being used twice for two different corporate entities? One for domestic ownership .. and the second for international ownership? Ron
