印度每日邮报:挑战微软霸权,中国使用国产软件
Beijing: In an attempt to end the monopoly of global software giant Microsoft, major Chinese ministries on Friday started upgrading its domestic software, by using the latest edition of WPS office software made in China. Fifteen Chinese ministries, including the ministry of commerce, ministry of foreign affairs and ministry of state security, will be the first users of the new edition of WPS office software, the Chinese newspaper, People’s Daily, reported.
The WPS system was the only product which experts said would challenge the overwhelming dominance of the Chinese market by Microsoft Office. The Chinese government began to purchase WPS Office 2002 in last year’s government procurement, becoming the biggest user of the software developed by Kingsoft Office Software.
