去年初,新当选的美国总统克林顿,一上任就正式提出在美国建设“信息高速公路”。不到一年时间,英、法、日、韩、加等国也纷纷抛出各自的计划,欲与美国一争高低,在未来的国家高速信息网中抢占一席之地。 Earlier last year, newly elected U.S. President Bill Clinton formally proposed building an “information superhighway” in the United States as soon as he took office. In less than a year, Britain, France, Japan, South Korea, Canada and other countries have also thrown their own plans to compete with the United States in order to gain a place in the future national high-speed information network.
