That there are flourishing Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Macau. But there is another China. More than 800 million Chinese live in poor agricultural areas west, away from the sea. Yet there is still a beggar and tormented permanent insurrection… Here's Tibet and the Chinese authorities decided to use the Olympics to "smartness" informatization level of western countries to the east. Top Olympic competitions to the west of China is scheduled to pave the lot Fibre cables, give subsidies to local Internet providers, conduct internet in schools. And the planned expansion of coverage for mobile communication operators. In short, after the Olympics we seem to see a very different IT-China.
