ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES [Abstract]
ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES	NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES Network CN Inc. was originally incorporated on September 10, 1993 in Delaware with headquarters in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China ("PRC" or "China"). Since August 2006, Network CN Inc., its subsidiaries and variable interest entity for which it is the primary beneficiary (collectively "NCN" or the "Company" "we", "our" or "us") has been principally engaged in the provision of out-of-home advertising in China through the operation of a network of roadside LED digital video panels, mega-size LED digital video billboards and light boxes in major cities. Details of the Company's principal subsidiaries and variable interest entity as of December 31, 2011 are described in Note 3 - Subsidiaries and Variable Interest Entity. Going Concern The Company has experienced recurring net losses of $2.1 million, $2.6 million and $37.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 respectively. Additionally, the Company has net cash used in operating activities of $0.4 million, $1.6 million and $5.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 respectively. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company has a stockholders' deficit of $5.1 million and $3.5 million, respectively. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's plans regarding those concerns are addressed in the following paragraph. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. In response to current financial conditions, the Company has undergone a drastic cost-cutting exercise, including reduction of the Company's workforce, office rentals and other general and administrative expenses. Certain commercially non-viable concession right contracts were terminated and management has successfully negotiated with the authorizing party of current concession to reduce its advertising operating right fees. The Company has also continued to strengthen its sales force in order to increase its sales volume. In addition, the Company recently identified three media projects in China for which the Company is making a bid for consideration but the Company has not yet committed to any of these projects. If the Company is successful in its bid, the Company expects that these projects will improve the Company's future financial performance. Accordingly, in October 2011, the Company engaged three independent consultants to provide consulting services in connection with the Company's bid for the media projects. The existing cash and cash equivalents together with highly liquid current assets are insufficient to fund the Company's operations for the next twelve months. The Company will need to rely upon some combination of cash generated from the Company's operations, the proceeds from the potential exercise of the outstanding option held by Keywin Holdings Limited ("Keywin") to purchase $2 million in shares of the Company's common stock, or proceeds from the issuance of the Company's equity and debt securities as well as the exercise of the conversion option by the Company's note holders to convert the notes to the Company's common stock, in order to maintain the Company's operations. Based on the Company's best estimates, the Company believes that there are sufficient financial resources to meet the cash requirements for coming twelve months and the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. However, there can be no assurance the Company will be able to continue as a going concern. Reverse Stock Split On July 5, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company unanimously adopted resolution approving an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to effect a 1-for-5 reverse stock split of all outstanding shares of common stock, which the Company effected on September 16, 2011 (the "Reverse Split") and a reduction of its authorized shares of common stock from 2,000,000,000 to 400,000,000 shares. Shareholders received one new share of common stock in replacement of every five shares held on July 5, 2011, the record date for the Reverse Split. The Reverse Split did not change the stockholder's ownership percentage of the common stock, except for minimal changes resulting from the treatment of fractional shares. The Company did not issue any fractional shares as a result of the Reverse Split. The number of shares issued to each stockholder was rounded up to the nearest whole number if, as a result of the Reverse Split, the number of shares owned by any stockholder would not be a whole number. The Reverse Split proportionately reduced all issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock, as well as common stock underlying stock options, warrants and other common stock based equity grants outstanding and the respective exercise prices were proportionately increased in accordance with the terms of the agreements governing such securities. Shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon the conversion of the Company's convertible notes were also proportionately reduced and the respective conversion prices were proportionately increased. All references to shares in the accompanying financial statements and notes thereto including but not limited to the number of shares and per share amounts (except par value), unless otherwise noted, have been adjusted to reflect the Reverse Split retroactively. Previously awarded options and warrants to purchase shares of the Company's common stock have also been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Split.

Going Concern

The Company has experienced recurring net losses of $2.1 million, $2.6 million and $37.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 respectively. Additionally, the Company has net cash used in operating activities of $0.4 million, $1.6 million and $5.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 respectively. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company has a stockholders' deficit of $5.1 million and $3.5 million, respectively. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's plans regarding those concerns are addressed in the following paragraph. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

In response to current financial conditions, the Company has undergone a drastic cost-cutting exercise, including reduction of the Company's workforce, office rentals and other general and administrative expenses. Certain commercially non-viable concession right contracts were terminated and management has successfully negotiated with the authorizing party of current concession to reduce its advertising operating right fees. The Company has also continued to strengthen its sales force in order to increase its sales volume.

Accordingly, in October 2011, the Company engaged three independent consultants to provide consulting services in connection with the Company's bid for the media projects.

The existing cash and cash equivalents together with highly liquid current assets are insufficient to fund the Company's operations for the next twelve months. The Company will need to rely upon some combination of cash generated from the Company's operations, the proceeds from the potential exercise of the outstanding option held by Keywin Holdings Limited ("Keywin") to purchase $2 million in shares of the Company's common stock, or proceeds from the issuance of the Company's equity and debt securities as well as the exercise of the conversion option by the Company's note holders to convert the notes to the Company's common stock, in order to maintain the Company's operations.

Reverse Stock Split

On July 5, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company unanimously adopted resolution approving an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to effect a 1-for-5 reverse stock split of all outstanding shares of common stock, which the Company effected on September 16, 2011 (the "Reverse Split") and a reduction of its authorized shares of common stock from 2,000,000,000 to 400,000,000 shares.

Shareholders received one new share of common stock in replacement of every five shares held on July 5, 2011, the record date for the Reverse Split. The Reverse Split did not change the stockholder's ownership percentage of the common stock, except for minimal changes resulting from the treatment of fractional shares. The Company did not issue any fractional shares as a result of the Reverse Split. The number of shares issued to each stockholder was rounded up to the nearest whole number if, as a result of the Reverse Split, the number of shares owned by any stockholder would not be a whole number.

The Reverse Split proportionately reduced all issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock, as well as common stock underlying stock options, warrants and other common stock based equity grants outstanding and the respective exercise prices were proportionately increased in accordance with the terms of the agreements governing such securities. Shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon the conversion of the Company's convertible notes were also proportionately reduced and the respective conversion prices were proportionately increased.

All references to shares in the accompanying financial statements and notes thereto including but not limited to the number of shares and per share amounts (except par value), unless otherwise noted, have been adjusted to reflect the Reverse Split retroactively. Previously awarded options and warrants to purchase shares of the Company's common stock have also been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Split.
