BEIJING, June 13 (Xinhua) -- China plans to build 600,000 5G base stations this year to promote the construction of 5G and other new infrastructure, People's Daily reported.

China has taken a global lead in 5G development and now owns the word's largest 5G network, according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.

By the end of April, China has set up a total of 1.62 million 5G base stations, accounting for more than 60 percent of the global total.

The country expects to see the number of 5G users exceed 560 million by 2023, and every 10,000 people in China will enjoy more than 18 5G base stations, stated a guideline released last year. (Edited by Yang Yifan with Xinhua Silk Road, yangyifan@xinhua.org)
