Taiwan to announce 3G standard in July

date: June 25, 2001

The government will finalize the specifications of the 3G standard to be used in Taiwan in July when it promulgates the tender-bidding requirements, according to Tsai Ching-yan, minister without portfolio of the Executive Yuan.

Some of the potential 3G operators are opposed to the early issuance of 3G license. Nevertheless, officials from the MOTC said that the government had decided to tender a bid for the 3G licenses before the end of this year after taking consumer and national interests into consideration, as well as government income, future telecommunication development trends, and available resources.

The bid will be tendered with reference to experiences in the U.K. and Germany. In July, the MOTC will decide on either the European (WCDMA) or U.S. (CDMA2000) 3G specifications, the MOTC official said at a meeting with industrial leaders from the telecommunication and information industries.
