PT/EXPO COMM CHINA 2014 Dominating Future Trends Coming in September
Beijing, Aug. 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — In the era of mobile Internet, our way of life is undergoing dramatic changes. Do you want to set up a home entertainment center in the cloud? Do you want secure on-line finance anytime anywhere? Do you want to protect the safety of your house via Internet of Things? Do you want to manage your health with wearables? If the answers are "Yes", you cannot miss PT/EXPO COMM CHINA 2014.
On September 23rd, PT/EXPO COMM CHINA 2014 will unveil itself in Beijing China International Exhibition Center. With a big stage of 45,000 m2, more than 500 global giants will lead you "into the future" such as China Telecom, China Mobile, China Unicom, Potevio, Datang Telecom, FiberHome Technologies, ZTE, Huawei, NEC, NOKIA, Changfei, Hengtong, UNION VOOLE, Samsung, Sony, CNTV, Tencent, Sina, Netease, Ali Telecom, FunTalk, Telling, Soshare Mobile, Suning Mobile, Gome.com.cn and 35.com.
New themes getting closer to you
Science and technology are developing by leaps and bounds. The Expo abandons out-of-date ideas and absorbs new concepts. It will launch two thematic areas, i.e. "Smart Life Pavilion" and "Virtual Operator Pavilion", which will push new concepts closer to you.
Recently, China Telecom partnered with FiberHome to form the smart home industrial alliance, while Huawei and other companies initiated the smart home entertainment alliance. Although they have different priorities, both focus on establishing a "One Cloud and Multiple Screens" smart entertainment ecosystem, which will enable users to pay for water and electricity bills, check traffic violation, and enjoy cloud video, cloud games and cloud education at home.
Under the evolution of 4G, cloud computing and big data technologies, ZTE thinks SMART2.0 has come. Smart phones, home appliances and smart wearables will understand human demands gradually, which will bring about values beyond our expectation. China Mobile launched In-Sim card targeting at the Internet of Things, so that consumers could easily enjoy smart healthcare, Internet of Vehicles and NFC payment.
We all have a vision for smart life. Virtual operators are also trying to have a share of the pie. The Expo especially creates "170 Virtual Operator Pavilion" with the theme of "Debut, Convergence and Win-win Cooperation — Virtual Operators at your Side". The pavilion covers 5,000 m2. Brands will no longer compete on price, but rather on differentiation. Various value-added services such as "Smart Mobile Health", "Smart Transportation" and "Smart Community" are launched for the practical benefits of consumers.
Incumbents revitalize on their accumulated strengths
2014 marks the very first year for 4G. The reform in the telecom sector is speeding up. While basic telecom services are reaching the ceiling, incumbents in the market are actively exploring new industries such as mobile Internet, Internet of Things, optical communications and information security, which are taking effect.
Take time-honored Potevio for example, with innovation, it has transformed itself from a traditional manufacturer to an integrated information service provider. To our knowledge, Potevio’s self-developed TD-LTE4G system has integrated functions such as communications, broadcasting and visualized emergency command and control, which has laid out its smart city blueprint for regions like Yinchuan.
Hall 4 is "Special Pavilion for Optical Communications and Tests". Here we could experience the optical network cities strategies designed by the three operators and learn more about the latest progress of Broadband China. Secure and fast optical communications could eliminate blind areas for mines and airplanes, and prevent the information leakage in areas like military affairs, national security and smart home. With the further enhancements of skills, we would be capable of embracing more possibilities in our life.
Industry insiders have pointed out that PT/EXPO COMM CHINA co-organized by MIIT and CCPIT is a leading Gala Event in APAC. It has attracted outstanding companies from more than ten countries and regions including the mainland, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Canada, UK, Finland, Germany, Israel, Japan, Korea, Sweden and US, whose new releases will define the trends of the industry to a large extent.
Pre-registration, New experience
The theme of "Getting New Concepts Closer to You" has attracted huge visitor to the events, especially industry outsiders. They have shown tremendous interests in new themes such as "Smart Life Pavilion", and just could not wait to experience cutting-edge technologies yet to be launched.
According to the events manager, people can now log on to the official website for pre-registration to secure free access and opportunity to become VIP audience for "ICT China — High-level Forum 2014" (including badge with a value of 2000 RMB and a full package of documents). In addition, pre-registered visitor also has opportunity to participate in the lucky draw for Huawei, Phicomm and Sony smart phones. The five-day expo is expected to receive 200,000 people from both China and overseas countries, creating another historical high.

Sasol, EDM Inaugurate New Gas-to-Power Plant in Mozambique
RESSANO GARCIA, Mozambique, Aug. 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ —
Earlier today, the President of the Republic of Mozambique, Armando Guebuza, and the Mozambican Minister of Energy, Salvador Namburete, joined the chairman of the Mozambican state power utility, Electridade de Mozambique (EDM), Augusto Fernando de Sousa and the President and CEO of Sasol, David Constable, at the inauguration of Central Termica de Ressano Garcia (CTRG).
The CTRG power plant, which is a partnership between EDM (51%) and Sasol (49%), represents Mozambique’s first permanent large-scale gas-to-power facility in Ressano Garcia, which is on the border between Mozambique and South Africa.
Natural gas will be supplied to the new power plant from the Sasol-operated central processing facility (CPF) in Temane in the Inhambane province. Together with its partners, Sasol has expended approximately US$3 billion in capital investments, which include the development and expansion of the CPF and natural gas fields in Southern Mozambique, the construction of a cross-border pipeline, and the completion of the CTRG gas-to-power project.
The 175MW gas-fired power plant will supply electricity to more than two million Mozambicans – this equates to 23% of the country’s current demand. The Mozambican economy is one of the fastest growing on the African continent, and is seeing electricity demand increasing by approximately 14% annually.
The opening of the CTRG power facility comes as Sasol celebrates its 10th anniversary of developing the Temane and Pande stranded gas fields in Mozambique, through strong in-country partnerships and its technical expertise. The company’s investments over the past decade have contributed to the creation of a favourable investment climate for Mozambique, while establishing an exploration and natural gas production sector in the region. These investments also serve to support economic growth and development in both Mozambique and South Africa.
Sasol President and CEO, David Constable said, "By working together with our Mozambican and South African partners, we are well-placed to unlock the ultimate potential of Mozambique’s hydrocarbon resources in an integrated and sustainable manner, which will benefit not only the country but the broader region."
EDM Chairman Augusto Fernando de Sousa commented, "Despite Mozambique’s extensive hydrocarbon resources, EDM is currently experiencing an electricity deficit which necessitates importing power. CTRG will help enhance the country’s energy self-sufficiency and will also help to diversify our energy base."
The gas-fired power plant is expected to reach beneficial operation in October this year.
About Sasol:
Committed to excellence in all we do, Sasol is an international integrated energy and chemical company that leverages the talent and expertise of our more than 33 000 people working in 37 countries. We develop and commercialise technologies, and build and operate world-scale facilities to produce a range of product streams, including liquid fuels, high-value chemicals and low-carbon electricity.
While remaining committed to our home-base of South Africa, Sasol is expanding internationally based on a unique value proposition.
