China announces it has developed the world's most integrated
chip for mobile telecommunications.
The news was released Sunday at the "China Chip Project"
conference in Beijing.
Analysts say the chip marks that China has become a world leader
in this technology.
It will reduce domestic dependence on foreign intellectual
property and encourage the country's telecommunications
manufacturing sector.
China has seen explosive growth in the telecommunications
industry in recent years, particularly in the mobile phone
business.
