flag FCC orders HKT to justify retention of U.S. license over national security concerns linked to China Unicom Americas.

flag The U.S. Federal Communications Commission issued a show cause order on October 15, 2025, demanding Hong Kong Telecommunications (HKT) justify why its U.S. operating authority should not be revoked due to national security concerns tied to its link with China Unicom Americas, a previously banned entity. flag This action, part of the broader "Clean Networks" initiative, follows prior FCC moves to restrict Chinese-linked telecom providers like China Mobile and China Telecom. flag HKT has 30 days to respond, with potential revocation threatening its U.S. services and operations. flag While the financial impact may be limited, the move signals continued U.S. regulatory scrutiny of Chinese-affiliated telecom firms amid ongoing tensions.
