FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CHINATEL GROUP TO BID FOR WIRELESS SPECTRUM LICENCES IN PERU
IRVINE, CALIFORNIA – September 11, 2008 – ChinaTel Group, Inc. (“ChinaTel” – OTCBB:CHTL) today announced that it plans to participate in an upcoming auction to bid for wireless 2.5GHz spectrum licensing for the country of Peru. This move is part of ChinaTel’s worldwide strategic plan to acquire and/or operate WiMAX networks in key markets throughout the world.
The Agencia de Promoción de la Inversión Privada (ProInversión) in Peru will auction concession licenses in a Public Special Bid to Award in concession the Band 2668-2692 MHZ (province of Lima, Callao, Trujillo, Department of Lambayeque) and Band 2668-2690 MHZ in the entire National Territory.
ChinaTel is aiming to be at the forefront of WiMAX deployment in Peru. Riding on the WiMAX technology wave, ChinaTel, if a successful bidder, will have the capabilities of becoming a catalyst of change for the new generation of Internet applications and users in Peru. “The Peruvian government is aiming to increase broadband penetration nationwide and we are eager to return to Peru and show the Peruvian people our deployment and network operations capabilities,” said George Alvarez, CEO of ChinaTel Group. “Peru is the first of other spectrum auctions in which we are planning to participate.”
Besides offering wireless broadband, WiMAX is seen as technology that can open the doors to the convergence of Internet, telephony, and pay TV services – known as the triple play strategy. In May 2006, the Peruvian government created unified concession contracts, which came into force in mid-2007, whereby a single license is granted for the provision of all telecom services, including fixed-line, mobile, pay TV, and Internet. Bids will be awarded November 28, 2008.
