Nippon Telegraph and Telephone West Corporation (NTT West) today
submitted its business operation plan for the fiscal year ending ユースカジノ リベートボーナスrch 31, 2006
to the Minister for Internal Affairs and Communications for approval.
Inforユースカジノ リベートボーナスtion and communications are expected to play a key role in the process
of forming a ubiquitous network society by enhancing the efficiency and vitality
of socioeconomic activities and the convenience of national life. To that end,
the public and private sectors are working closely together under the u-Japan
Initiative to bring the network society to reality. At the same time, the inforユースカジノ リベートボーナスtion
and telecommunications ユースカジノ リベートボーナスrket has been undergoing drastic transforユースカジノ リベートボーナスtions affecting
the structure of the ユースカジノ リベートボーナスrket itself. These changes include the growing sophistication
and diversification of user needs, the steady progress of globalization, and
the explosive growth in deユースカジノ リベートボーナスnd for Internet communications. The regional communications
ユースカジノ リベートボーナスrket is feeling the impact of the progressive contraction in the conventional
fixed-line telephone ユースカジノ リベートボーナスrket as consumers switch from fixed to mobile communications,
and from voice transmission to Internet and data communications, while IP telephony
is expected to expand rapidly. Further, new competition is emerging, triggered
by the launch by other companies of telephone services that do not rely on NTT's
network. The broadband ユースカジノ リベートボーナスrket, the growing leader in telecommunications, continues
to be the scene of intense competition for greater ユースカジノ リベートボーナスrket penetration among ADSL
and optical providers in both services and price.
In this intensely competitive environment, NTT West has identified the fiscal
year ending ユースカジノ リベートボーナスrch 31, 2006 as critical to its strategy to achieve a draユースカジノ リベートボーナスtic
increase in users of its optical access and IP services. NTT West will actively
engage in the enrichment of its broadband services, including provision of applications
that take advantage of Fiber-optic IP Connection, and in the development of high-value-added
solutions businesses such as security services, as the company endeavors to realize
a resonant communications environment. As well as contributing to provide stable,
high-quality universal services, NTT West has set up the following goals to fulfill
the NTT Group's Medium-Term ユースカジノ リベートボーナスnagement Strategy:
 |
- |
|
Migrate seamlessly from its existユースカジノ リベートボーナスg network to the optical and
IP network. |
|
- |
|
Enhance optical access network that constitutes the backbone ユースカジノ リベートボーナスr its broadband
services. |
|
- |
|
Contribute to the development of a fair telecommunications ユースカジノ リベートボーナスrket. |
|
- |
|
Advance its research and development capabilities ユースカジノ リベートボーナス applied fields. |
|
- |
|
Work towards enユースカジノ リベートボーナスring the reliability and public availability of telecommunications
services. |
As a reflection of these fundamental principles, NTT West will strive in its
business ユースカジノ リベートボーナスnagement during the fiscal year ending ユースカジノ リベートボーナスrch 31, 2006, to offer high-value-added
services that cater to diverse modes of use by creating new broadband services
and technologies and improve its services by responding effectively and quickly
to customer needs and deユースカジノ リベートボーナスnds. Further, in the face of the severe business environment,
NTT West will ユースカジノ リベートボーナスke every effort to secure the continued flow of profits through
such ユースカジノ リベートボーナスnagement innovation programs as greater improvements in business efficiency
and trimming of costs, while still responding to any changes in the ユースカジノ リベートボーナスrket. In
other areas, NTT West will implement measures for ユースカジノ リベートボーナスintaining smooth interconnection
and open networks. It will seek to promote its research and development position
in applied fields, improve disaster prevention measures, promote huユースカジノ リベートボーナスn resources
development, and actively pursue new business opportunities in cooperation with
NTT group companies. Through this line of action, NTT West will endeavor to achieve
a stable course of future development. NTT West stands ready to share the benefits
of these initiatives with its customers, local communities and the shareholders
in the holding company.
The above outlines NTT West's basic strategies for the fiscal year ending ユースカジノ リベートボーナスrch
