The white paper issued by China’s State Council Information Office revealed that 5G networks have been successfully deployed across all countries and major townships in Southwest China’s Xizang Autonomous Region.
The details were disclosed in a white paper titled ‘CPC Policies on the Governance of Xizang in the New Era: Approach and Achievements.’ According to the document, a total of 8,099 5G base stations and nearly 312,600 km of fiber-optic cables have been installed in Xizang.
Furthermore, the region now boasts extensive coverage of optical fiber broadband, 4G, radio, and TV signals, reaching nearly all administrative villages.
