China Unicom to Work with Strategic Partner to Expand Globally

To further explore the overseas market, China Unicom (Hong Kong) Operations Limited ("China Unicom Hong Kong") is going to work shoulder to shoulder with its strategic partner to enhance its global development. 8 VPoPs will be added all over Asia, which enables mainland enterprises to gain access to their subsidiaries, to keep in touch with the business and to obtain first-hand information. Besides, China Unicom also decides to expand the business scopes and enhance the advantage in telecommunications by adding numerous overseas PoPs. To pave way for global development, China Unicom will create an optical-fiber communication international hub in Hong Kong by taking advantage of its unique geographical location.


The strategic partnership with the 8 VPoPs successfully enriches the networking resources of China Unicom Hong Kong. These additional VPoPs play an essential role in China Unicom's global network development. They are located all over Asia including Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, Philippines, South Korea, Australia and the Middle East, and therefore providing better routes for mainland enterprises to connect with their subsidiaries located outside china. Meanwhile, because of the geographical diversification of these VPoPs, mainland enterprises are able to draw more outbound businesses.

Furthermore, China Unicom schedules to extensively establish numerous overseas PoPs. Benefited from the geographical uniqueness, making Hong Kong the optical-fiber communication hub will enable China Unicom to extend the stretch of its international businesses so as to further reinforce the integrated strength of the company. China Unicom is committed to continuously providing the best quality of fixed and mobile communications service (both GSM and CDMA), domestic and international communications facilities, satellite IPLC service, data communications service, network access service, value-added telecom services and system integration service related to information and communications services. The existing PoPs cover all across Europe, North America and Asia, including: Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, Los Angeles, San Jose, New York, Anaheim, Miami, Dallas, Chicago, London, Frankfurt, Stockholm and Paris.

China Unicom Hong Kong has taken a great leap forward in the development of international telecommunication.
