CEO: China Mobile's 4G service leads market in Pakistan

Building an international team

Pakistan has the only overseas communications network of China Mobile, a pioneer in Chinese telecom companies' strategy to go global. Since its establishment in Pakistan, the corporation has invested a total of $2.7 billion there.

Internationalization for the company also means "cultivating international talent", which includes sending Pakistani senior and middle-level staff to China for management training.

"CMPak is a localized company. So far, we have 3,100 employees. Among them, only 24 are Chinese," Wang noted. "Chinese colleagues account for less than 1 percent of the staff."

Thus cross-cultural training has become equally important. "It's an effective way to promote communication between Chinese and Pakistani colleagues, such as training Chinese employees on local customs," Wang said.
