The nation-wide popularization campaign for the use of the Chinese-language domain name ".中国 (China)" was launched in Beijing on May 7. People's Daily Online, Xinhuanet.com, Sina.com and QQ.com have taken the lead in registering under the domain name ".中国." So far, 90 percent of national provincial or ministerial-level government organizations, 95 percent of traditional media websites, over 90 percent of the 211-engineering universities, over 50 percent of China's top 100 enterprises and over 40 percent of China's top 500 enterprises have already registered to use the ".中国" domain name. It is expected that within the next two years, China's mainstream websites will all be using the ".中国" domain name.
According to an official from the China Internet Network Information Center (CINIC), developing the domain name of .中国 is an important means to accelerate the application and popularity of the Internet in China, allow the Internet to better play its role in supporting and advancing the Chinese economy, and spread the excellent culture of the Chinese nation. China has gradually completed the formulation of three key international Internet standards in the field of the .中国domain name, ensuring that .中国 is fully fit for the traditional cultural and linguistic habits of Chinese people. Up to now, mainstream browser producers have all accepted international standards, and given their direct support to the domain name of .中国. Search engine operators Yahoo and Google have also supported the collection and search of the domain name of .中国. The environment for the application of the domain name of.中国 is being perfected day by day.
