 I am pleased to greet the World Radio Communication Conference. Radio communication technology has transformed information sharing, revolutionized industries, saved lives and advanced development. Your discussions will have significant implications as we look forward, including your consideration of the identification of frequency bands, particularly suitable for the deployment of high-capacity 5G networks. Businesses such as 5G, high-altitude platform stations and satellite communications offer great promise to help close the digital divide and advance the sustainable development goals. These and many other innovations depend on the radio spectrum, a limited and shared resource. Thank you for coming together to facilitate its efficient use and equitable access. I wish you a successful conference. Thank you.
