China Telecom Corp. Ltd., Chinas largest fixed-line phone company, reported better-than’-expected profits for 2004 on Thursday thanks to growth in its broadband business, which it expects to remain a driver amid market expectations for an industry overhaul.
China has 320 million fixed-line users and 344 million mobile users — one customer account for half its 1.3 billion population.
