Internet giant Google on Thursday refused it was planning to close down its business functioning in China by the end of March 2010.

Google's representative Marsha Wang said that the company had not asked its domestic marketing agents to discontinue their business processes in China.

"That''s not possible. Our China operations are still at normal," Wang added.

The company's Chinese group continued to build up novel services, appoint people and its businesses were as in the usual manner.

Hearsays regarding Google's possible back out from the Chinese market were running high on Thursday ever since its chief executive officer Eric Schmidt announced during a media summit in Abu Dhabi a day earlier that he anticipated "something will take place shortly" about its sophisticated argument with China.
