1.1 Interim Report 2003, dated August 12, 2003 5
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The report constituting Exhibit 1.1 contains certain forward-looking
statements that are, by their nature, subject to significant risks and
uncertainties, including those risks and uncertainties described under "Item 3.
Key Information -- Risk Factors" in our annual report on Form 20-F for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2002. These forward looking statements include,
without limitation, statements relating to our business strategies, network
expansion plans and related capital expenditure plans, the planned development
of new mobile technologies and other technologies and related applications, the
expected impact of tariff changes on our business, financial condition and
results of operations, the expected impact of new services on our business,
financial condition and results of operations, and future developments in the
telecommunications industry in Mainland China, including the restructuring of
the industry and changes in government policies. The words "anticipate",
"believe", "estimate", "expect", "intend" and similar expressions, as they
relate to us, are intended to identify certain of such forward-looking
statements.
These forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to
future events and are not a guarantee of future performance. Actual results may
differ materially from information contained in the forward-looking statements
as a result of a number of factors, including, without limitation:
o changes in the regulatory policies of the Ministry of Information
Industry of China and other relevant government authorities, which
could affect, among other things, the granting of requisite
government approvals, licenses and permits, interconnection and
transmission line arrangements, tariff policies, capital investment
priorities, and spectrum allocation;
o the effect of competition on the demand for and price of our
services;
o changes in mobile telephony and related technologies, which could
affect the viability and competitiveness of our mobile
telecommunications networks; and
o changes in political, economic, legal and social conditions in
Mainland China, including, without limitation, the Chinese
government's policies with respect to new entrants in the
telecommunications industry, the entry of foreign companies into
China's telecommunications market and China's economic growth.
2
In addition, our future network expansion and other capital expenditure
and development plans are dependent on numerous factors, including, among
others:
o our ability to obtain adequate financing on acceptable terms;
o the adequacy of currently available spectrum or the availability of
additional spectrum;
o the availability of transmission lines and equipment, and the
availability of the requisite number of sites for locating network
equipment, on reasonable commercial terms;
o our ability to develop or obtain new technology and related
applications; and
o the availability of qualified management and technical personnel.
We do not intend to update these forward-looking statements.
