Worth the wait

Article Abstract:

China's cellular phone industry is penetrating a bigger share of the market as competition sets in and prices decline. The number of cellular phone subscribers has grown 12.5% in 1997 to 6.75 million and is projected to reach 18 million by 2000. The growth means cellular phones are no longer limited to the country's wealthy people, but have also penetrated the urban middle class. Great Wall Mobile Telecom Co., meanwhile, is soon expected to join the Ministry of Post and Telecommunications and China United telecommunications Corp. in providing cellular service.

Article Abstract:

Asia's cellular phone industry has been given a boost by deregulation and increased competition in Hong Kong for example, the number of cellular subscribers has increased around 75% in 1996 to 1.2 million, according the Office of the Telecommunication Authority, the subscriber growth is attributed to the impending arrival of four new competitors in 1997. However, the market expansion is not expected to be universally beneficial to all providers, with some players suffering from aggressive price cuts and increased completion.

Companies continue to falter in providing support services and this is translating to an increase in frustrated customers. Factors like unit performance, services and rates should be provided by the companies so that customers are well informed on the service and units they are acquiring.
