Huaweihas for the first time made public the members of its board, in an attempt to improve transparency in order to address US concerns about its alleged links to the Chinese military.
The biggest change in the Chinese telecoms equipment maker’s annual report for 2010, to be published on Monday, is that Huawei has included for the first time a list of names, pictures and biographies of the people who run the company.
This follows a series of failures to win business and acquire assets in the US due to suspicions among some US lawmakers and policy makers that the company could be a front for the Chinese military. The company’s founder and chief executive, Ren Zhengfei, was once an engineer in the People’s Liberation Army.
