China's Ministry1 of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) pledged to elevate the country's broadband speed and coverage2, as well as lower Internet prices on Friday.
中国工业和信息化部周五承诺将提高国内宽带速度与覆盖率,同时降低网络资费。
By the end of this year, the average broadband speed for users in major municipalities and provincial3 capitals will be increased to 20 megabytes per second (Mbps) from the current 9 Mbps, said Shang Bing, the MIIT's deputy minister, and in other urban areas will be improved to 10 Mbps from the current 7 Mbps.
Infrastructure4 is key to improve the speed.
More than 1.30 million 4G base stations will be built in urban and most of the rural areas by the year end.
The MIIT said by the end of 2017, telecom enterprises will have invested more 1.1 trillion yuan (179.74 billion U.S. dollars) to upgrade China's Internet infrastructure. Optical broadband speeds of 100 megabytes per second (Mbps) will be offered to almost all the urban families, and average broadband speed will reach 30 Mbps in major cities.
Fair competition is key to reduce fees.
