| The interim profit of the
mainland's biggest fixed line
company, China Telecom, has
fallen four percent to 11.6
billion yuan. It blames the
fall on the cutting of prices
by other wireless carriers -
including China Mobile. It
says it plans to spend 16
billion yuan on acquisitions this
year, so it can enter the
mobile-phone market under a
government mandated revamp of
the industry.
