in 2001, then number of Internet users in China increased from 10,000
in December 1999 to 22,500,000 in January 2001, expecting 61,000,000
users in 2002. The gender proportion of Internet users appeared to
be of men 79% and 21% of women in July 1999, and 69.56% of men and
20.44% of women in January 2001 showing that men are still dominant
upon the use of Internet. The proportion of men and women using the
Internet informs that there are more men who are heavy user by the
ratio of 65:35, and more women who are light users by that of 49:51.
Despite such restrictions related to the Internet use it is China,
which has the potential energy in the Asia-Pacific region. Although
the percentage of Internet spread is as low as 3%, the number of
members is over 12.3 million. Particularly, the construction of
wireless and fiber optic cables as a new backbone and the establishment
of department of Information Industry generalizing policies and
industries in 1998 would increase the number by geometric progression
