China Telecom announced the appointment of
Yang Jie as president and chief operating officer.
Yang replaces Shang Bing, who resigned in
July to take up an appointment as a vice minister at China’s Ministry of
Industry and Information Technology.
Shang’s transfer into government was part
of a management shake-up at China’s state-controlled telecommunications
carriers.
Yang has 27 years of “operational and
managerial experience” in China’s telecom industry. Yang is also president
at China Telecommunications, China Telecom’s state-owned parent.
