BEIJING (China Daily/Asia News Network): China plans to have 26 5G base stations for every 10,000 people by the end of 2025, as the nation works hard to build a new digital infrastructure that is intelligent, green, safe and reliable, according to a five-year plan unveiled by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology on Tuesday (Nov 16).

The goal, based on an estimated national population, means that the nation aims to have about 3.64 million 5G base stations by the end of 2025.
