Supporting Stable and Secure Network Operations
Network Stability
Supporting Network Stability in Response to the Ya’an Earthquake
On April 20, 2013, a magnitude 7.0 earthquake hit Ya’an,
Sichuan Province, creating widespread destruction and
a wave of more than 4,000 aftershocks. Electricity
and water supplies were cut off, roads were blocked,
and critical telecommunication lines and wireless base
stations were destroyed, affecting thousands of people.
Bad weather, powerful aftershocks, and landslides
proved ongoing challenges to the effort to restore
communications.
In the wake of the earthquake, Huawei quickly
initiated an emergency plan, established an emergency
command center in Ya’an to coordinate local efforts, and worked alongside carriers, government agencies,
subcontractors, and relief workers to carry out rescue efforts.
In spite of the danger posed from numerous aftershocks, possibility of building collapse, and
landslides, Huawei employees courageously went to such severely stricken areas as Baoxing and Lushan
immediately after the disasters occurred to collaborate with local carriers in providing communications
for rescue and relief efforts. Huawei designated more than 400 employees to disaster-stricken areas
to restore equipment. All Huawei communications equipment was recovered by midday on April 26.
Through dedication and collaboration with related parties, we quickly restored communications for
local communities and provided effective support for relief efforts.
In 2013, Huawei ensured smooth communications for nearly 3 billion people worldwide and supported
the stable operations of over 1,500 networks for more than 600 customers in over 170 countries and
regions. We spared no effort in guaranteeing network availability during 181 critical events, natural
disasters (including the Ya’an earthquake and Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines), and special occasions
(such as Hajj).
