China Throws Money at Broadband

China plans to invest 2 trillion Chinese yuan (323 billion US dollars) to improve its broadband infrastructure by 2020 with the aim of bringing almost the entire population online, a vice minister said on Wednesday. In an interview published on an official website, Shang Bing, a vice minister at the Ministry of Information and Industry, said the government is aiming to boost the average broadband speed in Chinese cities to 20 Mbps by 2015 and to 4 Mbps in rural areas. source: Reuters article
