In 2020, China Unicom will achieve interoperability across the country

The reporter learned from the special press conference on April 17th of the Ministry of Transport that China's public transport card communication work has entered a substantive stage of advancement, and it is expected that large and medium-sized cities across the country will initially realize the cross-municipal and cross-traffic of cities before the end of 2016. By using the method, the nationwide inter-city and inter-provincial interconnection will be basically achieved by 2020.

Li Yang, spokesman for the Ministry of Transport and deputy director of the Policy Research Office hosted the press conference. Wang Liping, Deputy Director of the Department of Transportation of the Ministry of Transport, and Cao Desheng, Director of the China Communications and Communications Information Center, introduced the situation of the Card and Card Interconnection and answered questions from reporters.

According to reports, through the use of dot-belt, first-region, post-national, first-authentication, and post-authentication promotions, the card-connected interoperability work was first carried out in selected regions including Beijing, Tianjin, the Yangtze River Delta, the Pearl River Delta, and the three eastern provinces. . Recently, the Ministry of Transport issued a notice on the verification of the "Technical Code for Urban Public Transport IC Cards (Trial)". The pilot verification work has been carried out in three cities in Jiangsu, Guangdong, Jilin, and 37 bus cities. Afterwards, it will be promoted to the whole country and eventually form a national standard.

In the next step, the Ministry of Transport will promote the use of card interconnection as an important means to provide people with higher quality transportation services, strengthen organizational leadership, coordinate overall coordination, and accelerate implementation. The first is to formulate guiding opinions for the development of the industry, and to do well the top-level design, including the business development model and operating mechanism, to specify the direction for the healthy development of the industry. The second is to establish an operational management mechanism and establish as soon as possible clearing and clearing, service pricing, risk management and control, performance evaluation and other institutional rules, break the bottleneck of industry development, standardize the development order of the industry, and create a good environment for development. The third is to follow the principle that the market determines the allocation of resources and gives play to the role of government social management, organizes industry and market forces, and jointly builds a national-level clearing and settlement platform, and supports local card systems to carry out technology upgrades.

In response to the difficulties in the development of card and card interconnection and remote recharge and refund of cards, Wang Hsi said that there are difficulties in the interconnection and interoperability of China's Cards, such as the inconsistency of local standards, the different levels of popularity, and the fact that the promotion process cannot affect the normal use of the people and cannot change the original subsidy policies. The Ministry of Transport will adhere to the principles of overall consideration, compatibility, gradual replacement, and smooth transition. It will effectively protect the interests of public transportation card enterprises and increase the burden of the people. Through the policy guidance, it will formulate relevant service rules such as recharge and refund of cards.

For issues such as clearing and clearing, mobile payment, and fund security, Cao Desheng stated that the Ministry of Transport will formulate reasonable rules for clearing and clearing the industry and establish a nationwide clearing and settlement system to standardize clearing and settlement operations and plan for various smartphones at the same time. Conduct technical specifications trials on the platform and select the solution that best suits the interoperability of application technologies and business requirements. The card security of funds is supported by advanced key algorithms and back-end risk monitoring mechanisms to ensure the security of cardholder account funds.
