China Telecom moves south
29/12/2003 15:14
China Telecommunications Group, the country's largest telecom operator, is
moving its core organizations south to Shanghai, after its split last
June.
The group started construction of the 2,200-mu (147 hectares) China
Telecom Information Park yesterday in Nanhui County, south of the city, the
Shanghai Morning Post reported.
Organizations to be moved to the park include
the group's network monitoring center, research & development center and the
Yellow Page branch.
China Telecom operates the former China
Telecommunications Corp.'s business in southern China. The latter corporation
was split into two parts last June, part of the country's key reform measure in
the information industry to break the corporation's long monopoly.
After the
split, the southern China business was merged into the current group and
remained the name of China Telecom, while the northern China business was merged
with China Net Communications Corp to form China Net Communications
Group.
