  5. The average annual economic growth in Germany between 1960 and 1990 was 3,3 %. By DIN Standards 27,3 % Capital 48,5 % Licenses 15,2 % Patents 3,0 % Labour 6,0 % Economic growth is highly influenced by standards

  6. 1837 Invention of the first electric telegraph • 1844 Samuel Morse sent his first public message over a telegraph Iine between Washington and Baltimore • 17 May 1865 Foundation of the “International Telegraph Union” with the adoption of the “First International Telegraph Convention” • Alexander Graham Bell patents his invention of the telephone • 1906 First “International Radiotelegraph Convention” signed • 1924 Paris - Creation of CCIF (International Telephone Consultative Committee) • 1925 Paris - Creation of CCIT (International Telegraph Consultative Committee) • 1927 Washington - Creation of the CCIR (Intl. Radio Consultative Committee) • 1932 Madrid - Plenipotentiary Conference. Telegraph Union changes name to • International Telecommunication Union • 1947 ITU becomes a Specialized Agency of the United Nations • 1956 Geneva - CCIF and CCIT merged into CCITT (International • Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee) • 1992 Geneva - Plenipotentiary Conference. Creation of 3 Sectors: • ITU-T replaces CCITT, ITU-R replaces IFRB, CCIR, and ITU-D replaces TCD ITU Landmarks

  7. China joined ITU in 1920 • People’s Republic of China resumed its rights in ITU as of May 1972 • Ministry of Information Industry is a recognized Chinese Administration in ITU • China is a member of ITU Council (46 members) • 7 Sector Members including: • Alcatel Shanghai Bell, China Mobile, China Netcom, China Telecom, China Unicom, Huawei and ZTE are ITU Sector Members • 6 Sector Members from Hong Kong, 3 from Macao • Chinese Universities: BUPT; NUPT; XUPT; Zhejiang University; Tsing Hua University, etc… • Mr. Houlin Zhao, Director of TSB since 1999 and Deputy Secretary-General since January 2007 China in ITU

  8. Phase I – 1973-1980s: Learning period • Learning, observing, collecting information; very few contributions • A few experts nominated as Vice-Chairmen of SGs in 1980s • Phase II – 1990s: Transition period • More contributions, more delegates (individuals often changed) • One expert was nominated as Chairman of SG 12 in 1996 • Mr. Zhao was elected as Director of TSB in 1998 • Phase III – 2000: Active period • Chinese nominated as Vice-Chairman of ITU-T SG 4 at WTSA-2000, Montreal, Canada • TD-SCDMA accepted as one IMT-2000 technology in ITU-R Recommendations in 2000 • IP over SDH (Rec. X.85) approved in 2000, Geneva, Switzerland • Chinese expert nominated as Vice-Chairman of ITU-R SG 1, Istanbul, Turkey • Mr. Zhao re-elected in 2002 • China elected as Vice-Chairman of WTSA-04, Florianópolis, Brazil • Five Chinese experts were nominated as Vice-Chairmen of various ITU-T SGs at WTSA-04 • More substantial contributions; more delegates (Chinese delegations become No. 1 from Asia, and often No. 2 after the US delegations; Huawei, ZTE, China Telecom, etc. very active) • CCSA, AVS and another forum in China established a status with ITU-T under ITU-T Rec. A.4, A.5 and A.6 • Phase IV: Among leaders? Chinese experts in ITU
