China Sprays for Y2K Bugs

The millennium bug, or Y2K problem, will disable computer and can cause chaos in the

year 2000, when computers will not be able to distinguish from year 2000 to year 1900.

The State Council of China has set a deadline of September 1999, by then all government

computer systems must be revised and millennium bug test must be completed. Chinese

government agencies and government-owned enterprises are working hard to tackle the

problem, because failing to meet the deadline will be punished. It will take a long time to

test and correct China’s 10 million computers. Although a few leading companies has

taken steps to protect their computers from crashing in the year 2000, many small

companies have not yet taken the Y2K bugs into measures, and have made no moves

to prepare their systems. According to the China Economic Times, this caused anxiety

among business partners.

I hope government of China had job done before 2000, so they don't have to lost any

Enterprises and products that they have. I don't think anything go be happen when

It turn to 21 century.

I agree with the article that China government want to protect their computers from crashing in

the year 2000, they must be to prepare to complete their job quite.

The subject related to course is software and computer.
