First Out of the Gate: WiMax Vs. LTE

Maybe all the weaker telcos will be owned by Chinese sovereign wealth funds & we'll be rolling out TD-SCDMA.

--Dean, I work in China Mobile who is the only operator has the TD-SCDMA license.

And there are 3 operators in China, the other two are China Telecom with CDMA license and China Unicom with WCDMA license.

It is true, all these three operators are state-owned.

The root reason of enforcement of TD-SCDMA is the eager expection for local experts and local scientists from the industry.

Another reason is the responsibility from the government to improve the economic structure.

So TD-SCDMA is a push from the government to the local industry to learn and to research.

It is a painful and sweet decision, it is self-respect.

But first of all, China Mobile is still open to the industry all around the world.
