The Taiwan government has listed the development of wireless infrastructure as one of the 12 new construction projects aimed at stimulating the economy in Taiwan, according to newly inaugurated premier Liu Chao-shiuan. The development of the wireless infrastructure aims to make Taiwan the top wireless region in the world, Liu announced at a session held in the Legislative Yuan last week.

Under the plan, the government will build up complete wireless networks in Taiwan's major cities as well as "wireless highways" in remote areas, to enable both urban and rural areas to enjoy broadband services, Liu said.

Für den früheren Bürgermeister der Hauptstadt Taiwans war es ein Prestigeprojekt: Als Ergänzung zum GSM-Mobilfunknetz sollte in Taipeh bis Ende 2005 die stadtweite Versorgung der Bevölkerung mit drahtlosem Internet-Zugang per WLAN gewährleistet sein. Ma Ying-Jeou schwebte eine "CyberCity" vor, deren 2,6 Millionen Bewohner gegen Gebühr überall und rund um die Uhr per Funk surfen können. Inzwischen hat die Millionenmetropole am Danshui mit Hau Lung-Bin einen neuen Bürgermeister – und das weltweit größte städtische WLAN mit rund 4200 Hot-Spots, die 52 der insgesamt 272 Quadratkilometer Stadtfläche abdecken. Allein was fehlt sind Kunden.
