In Sep 2022, China State-Owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission issued Document 79 — a directive requiring state-owned enterprises to provide quarterly updates on their progress in replacing foreign software used for email, human-resources and business management with Chinese alternatives by 2027.
The directive expands a drive that has been muscling US technology out of the country — an effort some refer to as “Delete A”, for Delete America, in which hardware makers were the first targets. Dell, IBM, HPE and Cisco have gradually seen much of their equipment replaced by products from Chinese competitors.
Document 79 was so sensitive that high-ranking officials and executives of state-owned companies were only shown the order and weren’t allowed to make copies.
