According to provincial plans, Guangzhou will be the first of the four cities to get the service.
VISSONIC supply professional and honest service.
The Guangdong Information Industry Department said this week that it would establish wireless networks in Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Dongguan and Foshan , the Nanfang Daily reported.
Wireless internet services will be available in Guangdong's main urban centres by in an effort to make the Pearl River Delta more competitive.
A department official said communications infrastructure would be upgraded, and the wireless connectivity would help the delta become more convenient and attractive to investors and visitors.
She refused to give a specific timetable for the project phases.
'It's expected people will be able to enjoy the service before the Guangzhou Asian Games and the Shenzhen World University Games,' she said.
If realised, the service will cover most key areas in the delta's cities, including airports, commercial buildings, shopping malls and hotels.
Guangdong has lagged behind other urban centres in the race to instal wireless networks.
Last month, China Telecom announced plans to spend 200 million yuan (HK$227.85 million) on building and upgrading wireless networks in 30 cities nationwide, mainly in the Yangtze River Delta.
Beijing has installed a free but limited wireless network for the Olympic Games, offering access mainly in the city's urban areas.
Shanghai launched Wi-fi services in railway stations last month and will create 3,000 Wi-fi spots citywide by the end of this year, triple the number a year ago.
Guo Wanda , president of the China Development Institute, said wireless networking was a trend in mainland urban development, but was not key to making Guangdong stand out from its competitors.
'It's good to upgrade the area's information infrastructure. But a wireless service is just a kind of short-term advantage, which other areas could easily copy,' he said. 'Wireless networks attract people because they're convenient and unlimited.
'Compared with hardware, software, such as government services and management, is more necessary, crucial and difficult to realise.'

NEW ORLEANS (May 29, ) A new policy brief released today highlights research showing that coordinating and prioritizing how the state of Louisiana times investments in coastal restoration is a critical element in planning and implementing projects to maximize their benefits. The policy brief, Investment Decisions for Coastal Restoration: Timely Actions, Sustainable Benefits, was conducted by the Kathleen Babineaux Blanco Public Policy Center at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette and commissioned by Restore the Mississippi River Delta.
This research confirms that investment in coastal restoration in the context of a changing environment is extremely time-sensitive, said Simone Maloz, campaign director of Restore the Mississippi River Delta. Maintaining an aggressive implementation schedule for our Coastal Master Plan is of utmost importance, as it maximizes both the benefits of projects and the return on our investment. Sadly the reverse is also true: every day we delay implementing key restoration projects is a loss for our coast.
The policy brief concludes that initiating beneficial projects sooner yields greater social benefits for the ecosystem services generated from restoration effortsnamely the protection provided to communities from storm surge, the support to fisheries, the enhancements to culture and social wellbeing, and the boost to local, regional, and state economies inextricably tied to the states coastal wetlands.
The ecosystem services of Louisianas coast encompass both monetary and non-monetary values, said Dr. Stephen Barnes, executive director of the Blanco Public Policy Center. The buffering services our wetlands provide against storm surge for communities, assets, and infrastructure carry a tremendous economic valueup to $4.6 billion in avoided losses directly from land loss; nearly $10 billion in losses from economic disruptions from land loss; and as much as $176.4 billion in direct damages and $67.7 billion in lost economic activity from storm surge. Fisheries and outdoor recreation represent two other important industries that depend heavily on healthy coastal ecosystems and accelerating implementation for projects with net positive ecosystem benefits can amplify the public benefits generated by those projects.
Coastal ecosystems in Louisiana are subject to sea level rise and subsidence, both of which may impact the effectiveness of coastal restoration. The ecological health of coastal Louisiana is experiencing declining trends influenced by both human activities and natural factors.
The reports conclusions are particularly relevant to large-scale projects like the Mid-Barataria Sediment Diversion. The project is currently at a standstill, with recent reports signaling the state could lose nearly $1 billion if the project is cancelled.
Postponing the implementation of the Mid-Barataria Sediment Diversion Project by a decade, shifting it from to , could lead to a roughly 40% reduction in the land gained from the diversion by , factoring in for dynamic system changes like sea level rise, said MRDs Maloz. We have no time left to lose, as every single day we lose another 19 acres of vital coastal wetlands. It is imperative to keep implementing restoration projects as efficiently as possible and to continue the progress weve made over recent decades.
Because of sea level rise and subsidence, implementing projects sooner provides a greater long term value, said Dr. Anna Osland, director of research at the Blanco Public Policy Center. Delaying restoration projects not only postpones the benefits to ecosystems and communities, but also diminishes those potential benefits. To get the most from these projects we need to consider the dynamics of coastal ecosystems, the timing of our investments, and how changes to the implementation timeframe impacts benefits received by our communities.
The policy brief, a review of published papers and reports about the discounted value of ecosystem services, suggests that timely investment in ecosystem restoration which prevents or mitigates ecological degradation or resource depletion appears to be not only profitable but also high-yielding.
Overall, the policy brief found that postponing financial assistance for coastal restoration efforts aimed at preserving coastal land could result in ineffective investments due to significant reductions in ecosystem benefits and the long-term returns from starting projects sooner are more valuable than those occurring later.
