China Mobile:

China is the worlds largest mobile communications market. The number of mobile subscribers in China surpasses the number of fixed-line subscribers. Into 2005, China Mobile is the world’s largest mobile operator by number of subscribers. However China Telecom and China Netcom pose a serious threat to China Mobile and China Unicom with their Little Smart PAS services and pending 3G licenses. Though mobile subscriber growth slowed in mid-2004 due to government restrictions on price cutting campaigns, China entered 2005 with 330 million mobile subs.

China Unicom:

In terms of subscribers, China Unicom is the third largest mobile provider in the world and the second largest provider of CDMA mobile services. In China, it is the fourth largest telecom, the number 2 mobile provider and the only provider of CDMA mobile services. Its principal activity is GSM and CDMA mobile services, but it is the only operator licensed to provide all telecommunications services. Listed on HKSE and NYSE, the company is controlled by Unicom Group, a government controlled public company listed in Shanghai. The company is focused on its fast expanding 2.5G CDMA 1X service and launched a dual-mode GSM-CDMA system.
