HK telecom has the monopoly on all terrestrial national calls and they are all 100% free - users (both residential and business) only have to pay line rental. Mobile calls are also quite cheap - much cheaper than Western countries BUT users have to pay to make AND receive calls. HK has a very unusual telephone infrastructure.
