-Morning special commentator Wei Yingjie no doubt, mobile roaming fees, fixed telephone landline fees and other communications charges are common people's nightmare, but also the domestic communications company's mishap. A day does not solve, every year must toss several time. This is not, and the media exposed, China may cancel mobile phone roaming fees and fixed telephone landline fees, to promote consumers to increase telecommunications costs.  From the other side of the argument, this is only the opinion of individual experts, has been rejected by the NDRC. Do not take care of these specific disputes, the current state of the domestic telecommunications industry performance, it can be said that the cancellation of related tariffs is still to be time.  Therefore, we might as well put these confusing rumors as a way of expressing public opinion. However, this still cannot conceal a fact: regardless of mobile roaming fee or fixed telephone landline fee, is a kind of improper enrichment of domestic telecom operators; from the real and international trend of convergence, the related charges more than 35, but more for several years. Specifically, mobile roaming fees belong to the 0 cost of "trumped-up charges", fixed-line landline fee is also a bundle of tariffs, there is no reason to say, all this early public knowledge. In this case, the operator's various reasons are more and more pale, only one argument is worthy of sympathy: once the charges are abolished, the major operators of the financial statements of the profit figures are pitiful.  Roaming fee revenue has been the main part of mobile operators ' profits, if deducted, some operators will be changed from profit to loss.  Even more dull is that, in the fast-changing communications technology revolution background, some advanced countries have already canceled the cost of the traditional services, including voice calls, and we not only not actively connect, but day after day to do the industry monopoly dream. Early in the 2007, At&t, the world's largest telecoms operator, and its mobile company announced that mobile and fixed-line users in the net would be able to call or receive calls from other At&t users free of charge. As early as 2004, Japan's several major mobile companies 3G broadband data Internet services to achieve monthly billing (one of the package only 20 yuan/month), users through the mobile Internet service can call the Internet, is actually equal to call free. This shows that the traditional telecom operation and charging mode has gradually replaced by new technology and model. At home, 3G Technology just launched commercial, but encountered a lot of complaints.  This shows that the more the domestic telecom operators want to laurels, the new technology is not fast to promote, in turn, more and more rely on the traditional charging mode. Word, similar mobile roaming charges are mainly embodied as a kind of unreasonable charges of Monopoly, which is also objectively characterized by the weakness of new technology development and application. Therefore, based on the "national conditions", domestic telecommunications operators, even if there is no sincerity, do not have the confidence to completely abolish the above tariffs, but also to promote new technology innovation and application. 3G and other new technologies and commercial once mature, the formation of a new profit module (and at the beginning certainly is "high service"), then roaming fees, landline fees and so on automatically solved the problem. Of course, this is a bit helpless, no matter how can afford to wait, consumers have to wait.
