The city of Beijing is to initiate a software development project that will rapidly develop the software industry and turn the capital into a software center for Asia in the next three years.
The project aims to increase sales of software in Beijing to nearly 10 billion US dollars by 2005, twice the volume of 2002.
Officials with the municipal government revealed that the project would include five main objectives, including prioritising the development of industrial application software and greatly increasing volumes of software exports.
