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.
