International technology company Huawei is clearing the air regarding its Fifth Generation (5G) mobile technology pursuits in Jamaica.

The Chinese company has disclosed to Sunday Finance that it is not marketing 5G in Jamaica contrary to the impression being given by American officials with former American Ambassador to Jamaica Donald Tapia leading the campaign against Chinese 5G in Jamaica. Tapia has been a strong critic of 5G technology from China, in particular from Huawei, issuing a strong warning to the Jamaican Government last October about any contemplation of rolling out Chinese 5G in Jamaica.

 

5G is the latest in mobile and digital technology, which enables a new kind of network that is designed to connect virtually everyone and everything together including machines, objects and devices. 5G is the superfast cellular network that promises to be the foundations for tomorrow’s technologies.
