COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN RUSSIA TODAY

China builds more 5G stations than rest of world combined, while those lagging behind back off from its technology

Beijing boasts that it’s installed around 700,000 5G base stations across the country

 

There have been two great miracles in my lifetime.

One is the advent of personal computers and the Internet. The combination has revolutionized many activities around the world.

The other great miracle is the rise of China.

The pace and extent of change in China over the last forty years or so have been jaw-dropping. The world has never before seen anything quite like it.

And China has only begun revolutionizing the world.
