Chinese gov denies equipment testing result

April 11, 2003

China's Ministry of Information Industry yesterday denied media reports that revealed the result of China's 3G mobile telecommunication technology test, saying the test is still going on.

In a ministry statement publicized yesterday, the ministry's office of 3G technology said there's no ranking on equipment vendors as described by the reports, and the rumor had already harmed firms involved in the test.

"The test on 3G equipment is still under way and every company involved still has some parts waiting to be tested," said the statement.

On Tuesday, the Beijing Morning Post said it obtained a secret report from the ministry, which said Shenzhen-based Huawei Technologies was listed as No 1 in the ministry's test on 3G mobile equipment, beating foreign giants including Nokia, Ericsson, Siemens-NEC and Nortel Network in sequence. The report also said Alcatel, ZTE, Lucent and UTStarcom failed the test.

The report triggered anger among 3G equipment producers involved in the test.

"We're angry at the so-called list and are negotiating with the newspaper," said Gao Jin, a spokeswoman for ZTE Corporation, a Shenzhen-based telecommunication vendor. "Moreover, the most important thing in such tests is whether a company has passed or not, rather than who's the top."

Industry analysts also showed great concerns over the issue.

"The Chinese government is going to issue 3G licenses to mobile operators during the turn of 2004. Mobile operators are about to spend hundreds of billion of yuan on new 3G infrastructures," said analyst Li Dongping.
