Abstract

This IDC study provides a 2005 analysis of the telecommunications services market in China. This includes PSTN, data communications, and mobile services markets. The introduction of key SPs is also provided. IDC will also assess China's telecommunications market evolution trends in this research, as well as provide 2006-2010 forecasts for the telecom services market and the mobile services market.

"China's fixed-line carriers face more challenges from mobile and IP technology and have a greater sense of the development crisis. Therefore, major fixed carriers have started to implement the strategy of transformation, which is comprehensive but proceeding gradually. Developing broadband services to provide more acceptable content and expanding integrated information services and total solutions to customers, especially the business sector, are ways to work out this puzzle. Moreover, pursuing opportunities in mobile services is also essential to fixed-line carriers," says Elain Yi, market analyst, Telecom Group, IDC China.
