TOKYO, May 23, 2018 - (ACN Newswire) - China
Mobile International Limited (CMI) hosted the opening ceremony of
its Japan office in Tokyo, Japan. Mr. Song Yaoming, Minister of
Economic and Commercial Office, Embassy of the People's Republic of
China in Japan, Mr. Takagi Seiji, Director General for
International Affairs, Global Strategy Bureau, Ministry of Internal
Affairs and Communications, Mr. Jian Qin, Executive Vice President
of China Mobile Communications Group Co., Ltd., and Mr. Li Feng,
Chairman & Chief Executive Officer of China Mobile
International Limited.
Mr. Song Yaoming mentioned, "The 2020 Olympic Games will be held in
Tokyo, which will predictably bring many business opportunities to
Japan. And the number of tourists from all over the world,
especially China, will increase significantly. Communications
services are becoming one of the key development priorities in
Japan's infrastructure construction. The establishment of the CMI
Japan office will not only provide convenience for Chinese and
Japanese companies to expand their businesses, but also provide the
tourists more preferential roaming charges and better services. I
hope that Japanese companies will take the opportunity to learn
more about China Mobile and explore cooperation opportunities with
China Mobile."
Mr. Takagi Seiji added, "While government support is important,
enterprises are principal in strengthening the telecommunications
cooperation between two countries. Japanese telecom companies are
actively engaged in China and are working globally with Chinese
enterprises. Chinese companies have also been active within Japan.
We believe that CMI, a subsidiary of China Mobile with the world's
largest subscriber base, establishing its Japan office to strive to
move forward in Japan is about the right time."
Mr. Jian Qin said, "This is the year of the 40th anniversary of the
Sino-Japanese Treaty of Peace and Friendship this year. During a
visit to Japan earlier this month, Prime Minister Li Keqiang
indicated that China and Japan now have many new opportunities for
mutually beneficial cooperation, as both countries are strongly
complementary in economies. We should further strengthen
collaboration in key areas such as energy conservation,
environmental protection, technology innovation, high-end
manufacturing, finance, sharing economy, health care etc. and we
should positively explore possibilities for cooperation in 'the
Belt and Road', and jointly develop third-party marketplaces. Trade
and economic relations between China and Japan are inseparable from
the connectivity of Internet. The establishment of Japan office
will promote interrelation of information and communications
infrastructure, and strengthen cooperation in emerging technologies
such as 5G and IoT. This will not only provide localized and
high-quality telecommunications services for overseas Chinese
enterprises, but also build a communication bridge for Japanese
companies to access China, as well as all Asian and European
countries along the 'the Belt and Road'."
Information and communications technology is developing at a
breakneck pace in today's hyper-connected world. In view of that,
China Mobile is executing on its "Big Connectivity" strategy, which
outlines China Mobile's ambition to globalise its business to meet
increasing global demands in data consumption. To provide
competitive international telecommunication services to the 890
million China Mobile subscribers, CMI is continuously accelerating
its pace in expanding global network deployment and scale of
connectivity. The company presently owns 40 submarine and
terrestrial cables, 138 PoPs, and expects to complete 10 global
Internet data centres (IDC) construction in 3 years. In Asia, CMI
has launched 41 PoPs, providing transmission, IPVPN and Internet
services. CMI also participated in the construction of the NCP and
SJC2 submarine cable systems, and facilitated large capacity
connection within Asia Pacific. In future, CMI will continue to
participate in the construction of international communications
facilities, provide high-quality connectivity services for
operators and enterprises, and strive to become a trustworthy
partner.
