CHINA may strengthen its position as the world's largest mobile phone market this year, producing about one-third of the world's total mobile phones, said a senior expert with the China Centre for Information Industry Development (CCID) under the Ministry of Information Industry (MII).
“With the shifting production patterns of international industry giants and the rise in domestic phone manufacturers, the proportion of made-in-China mobile phones will grow from last year's 27% to around 33% in 2003,” said Shao Chunguang of the research department of CCID, a think-tank for MII.
