Over the five years from 2000 to 2004, consumption of cotton in the weaving sector rose 65.3% from 4.84 million tons to over 8 million tons. This sharp rise moved the country's domestic cotton production from a condition of oversupply to one where cotton must be imported to meet demand.

Survey firm iResearch released figures yesterday showing
that the value of real estate online advertising in the third quarter of this
year rose 26.1% over the second quarter, reaching 116 million yuan (US$14.3
million). This statistic was drawn from data from more than ninety mainstream
domestic websites, and it represents the third consecutive increase in
quarterly ad expenditure. It is also the third consecutive quarter in which the
rise in real estate online ad spending outpaced the rise in online advertising
in general; online ads rose just 11.2% in the third quarter.

Through the end of 2004, China had a cable backbone of 3.7
million kilometers, representing an investment of over 100 billion yuan
(US$12.3 billion). However, its usage rate stood at just 20% overall, and 30%
in urban areas. Numbers for transmission towers were similar. Part of the redundancy
problem arises from competition between the dominant operator in an area and
weaker companies trying to gain a foothold in the market. Without infrastructure
of their own, it is hard for them to compete, so they run additional lines that
are unnecessary from a general perspective. And because the resource disparity
is so large, the smaller operators essentially have no chance at beating the
dominant carriers at their own game, so the additional lines are doubly
redundant.
