Liu Liehong, vice-minister of industry and information technology (MIIT), told a press conference on Monday that China’s 5G network coverage and user scale have increased significantly.
In order to overcome the Covid-19 epidemic impacts, Telecom companies have worked hard and accelerated the 5G development in China since it has been commercialized more than a year ago and the company has established the world’s largest mobile network, said Liu.

The construction of the China 5G network is expected to complete during the 14th five-year plan (2021-25) period when the network speed and coverage will demonstrate considerable progress.
In March the action plan was released in which the MIIT said that China will attempt to complete the construction of “dual-gigabit” networks featuring both wired and wireless gigabit broadband by 2023. Basically, Chinese urban areas and townships will be covered in this infrastructure, propelling the nation’s competitiveness in innovations.
China rolls out the 5G network and leads the world in this mobile network innovation. Chinese tech giant Huawei as a 5G technology bellwether announced to launch of its 6G networks in 2030 which will be 50 times faster than 5G. Now the company also leads the world in 6G research and development.
