Together with the interim dividend of 5.16 HK cents per share, this brings the full year dividend to 15.86 HK cents per share. Total full year dividend represents 75% of profit attributable to shareholders
for the year, which is in line with the dividend policy of the company, and represents a 56% increase compared to that in 2010.

Peter Wong, chief executive officer of the group, said that they successfully delivered sustained growth and created value for shareholders and customers in 2011. Both revenue and profit of the group continued to grow.

He also said that their fixed-line operations continued to grow its carrier, corporate and residential businesses by further expanding its local coverage and providing a fully integrated offering to customers. Their international and IDD businesses continued to grow as they expand their overseas coverage and interconnections with operators worldwide via their comprehensive network. The company will endeavor to capitalize on the data era with its fixed-mobile integrated capabilities and a greater range of competitively priced and attractive service offerings.
