CHINA MOBILE ADDS 10 YUAN TO STRANDED PASSENGERS' ACCOUNTS.
BEIJING, Feb 1 Asia Pulse - Train services have been interrupted by snow, but China is making sure that telecommunications services don't suffer the same fate.
State-owned China Mobile (SEHK:0941, NYSE:CHL) has added 10 yuan (US$1.39) to the account of every mobile phone user stranded in southern Guangzhou since Tuesday to help them contact their families. This amount will buy about 10 minutes of long-distance conversation or 100 text messages.
So far, 344,633 people stuck in various places such as Guangzhou Railway Station, Guangzhou East Railway Station, the exit to the Beijing-Zhuhai expressway, and Guangdong Bus Station, have benefited.
"The service will continue as long as people are stranded," a staff member said.
