Single connection for all of China
Print Edition
CHINA'S State Council yesterday released a plan promoting a nationwide project to deliver telecom, radio, television and Internet services over a single broadband connection.
The “three-network convergence”project is aimed at integrating data transmission infrastructure and facilitating information sharing.
“The project can help upgrade consumption, overhaul industrial structure and improve people’s livelihoods,”it said.
Under the plan, radio and television stations are allowed to operate phone and Internet services. Telecom companies are allowed to make radio and television programs, except for political news.
Optical fiber will replace copper wires so that Internet speed and transmission capacity will be improved. Internet bandwidth will be increased, especially in rural areas.
Enterprises are asked to safeguard cyber security and “cultural security,"by enhancing the ability to ward off hacking, information tampering, radio and television program interruption and attempts to paralyze Internet services.
China will promote the development of digital publishing, interactive new media and mobile multi-media, and encourage the consumption of animation, games, digital music and online artworks under the project.
The government will also support research and development into key equipment needed to converge the three networks.
