Vietnam Power Telecom and Lucent Technologies Sign Contracts for CDMA450 Network Expansion13 June 2005
Lucent Technologies (NYSE: LU - News) today announced that Vietnam Power Telecom (VP Telecom) has selected Lucent for its phase II CDMA450 network expansion project.

Under the new agreement, Lucent will supply VP Telecom with equipment and services to provide coverage for most provinces in northern Vietnam.
