A few days ago it was reported that Mountain View based internet giant Google had cancelled plans on hosting a developer lab in Beijing apparently following issues it has with the Chinese government.

However, it would actually seem that the company never had any intention on holding the event that’s according to a company spokesperson. It has been said though that Google will be holding events in other Asian cities which will include Hong Kong, Singapore and also Taipei.

The Google spokesperson said they never planned to hold an Android Developer lab in Beijing and suggestions that we did plan one are not true. Previously on Reuters a post stated that Google had cancelled the launch of the Nexus One in China as well as the said planned meeting with Android developers in the country.

In relation to the distribution of Android phones in China apparently nothing has changed, Android is an open source mobile platform therefore anyone can bring Android powered devices to market. At this time though they are postponing the availability of Google mobile apps in Android devices from operators in China said Google’s official spokesperson. Source – news.softpedia.com
