Deutsche Telekom has always been interested in the Japanese market. This is one reason why we set up the Tokyo company. This allowed us to offer the first leased-line service to our customers. From our experience, small networks have been built up to serve international customers located in Japan. Our major target was to establish a bilateral service with Germany.
Customers require additional services, so the next step was to offer system integration.
This is an area where there is a lot of demand in the market today and it is a good field to be active in. The service will start in July. This will be a service mainly for German, Japanese and other companies to connect to Germany, but it will allow them to reach other destinations. This means the Japanese market is open. But let me give you one example of the direction we are moving in.
