Do not agree with claim that Huawei will be blocked: Jay Chen
The Hindu
There is uncertainty over the inclusion of the Chinese company in the list of ‘trusted sources’ for purchase of telecom equipment.
Amid uncertainty over the inclusion of China’s Huawei in the list of ‘trusted sources’ for purchase of telecom equipment, Jay Chen, the company’s Vice-President for the Asia-Pacific region, on Wednesday expressed confidence that Huawei will not be blocked, and instead will be welcomed by the Indian government. The statement follows the Department of Telecom amending the licence conditions earlier this month, mandating that services providers procure telecom equipment only from ‘trusted sources’ as defined by the government. The move, which comes into effect from June 15, will also require service providers to take permission from the National Cyber Security Coordinator (NCSC) for upgradation of existing networks utilising equipment not designated as trusted products. “...Not only 5G, but India as a market is very important for Huawei. We entered this market almost 20 years back and have the full operation function in India. We even put an international business centre here such as the network service centre in Bengaluru, which serves the global customer from almost 40 countries. So obviously India is very important,” Mr. Chen said while replying to a query during a virtual roundtable.More Related News
