the end of 2005, the mobile phone users have reached 388 million (19% of the
world market), and the number will be over 500 million by 2008 and over 150
million will be multimedia applications. Internet users have exceeded 100
million (half of them are broadband service subscribers). The total sale of
optical cables & fibers reached 15 million kilometers in 2004, with the
sale of the whole optical communication facility market reaching 1.5 billion
USD. Furthermore, business/market factors in this area in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:country-region
