Chinese operators have again been ordered to reduce data rates for consumers by the country's State Council, which has also called for them to lower fees on SMEs (small and medium enterprises). Chaired by Premier Li Keqiang, the council has called for SME internet charges to be reduced by 15%, for consumer mobile data rates to drop by at least 20%, and for data roaming fees between mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau to be reduced by 30% by the end of 2019.
