China invests in cloud technology centre at Chongqing

Asian technology website Penn Olson has reported that the Cloud Special Administrative Region (SAR) will have free and uncensored internet access for its authorised workers to allow technology firms in the facility to engage more normally with developments around the world.

Asian Correspondent speculates that this development, which began in April, indicates a shift towards building up Chongqing and Chendu areas with hi-tech zones. "Recently, we’ve also seen Acer set up a plant in Chongqing, and Philips this week announced it’d be joining Foxconn with its new facilities in Chengdu," it said.
