The Chinese government has mandated that all new homes in China must have fibre to the home (FTTH) connections from April this year.

According to China Daily, the new policy was recently issued by China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.

In areas where multiple fibre networks are accessible from a property, developers are also obligated to let consumers have a choice in which network they connect to.

FTTH is the main technology being rolled out in Australia through the National Broadband Network.
