China Aims for 50 Mbps in Cities by 2020

The Chinese government now has a target of nationwide broadband coverage by 2020, and plans to rely heavily on mobile networks to achieve that goal in rural areas, while urban areas could see gigabit networks, even if the nearer-term bandwidth targets could likely focus on Wi-Fi coverage in key public urban areas by 2013 and fixed broadband coverage for 50 percent of all households by 2015.

50 Mbps is a stated objective for urban areas.
