Leading IT businesses from the Asian-Oceania Computing Industry Organisation (ASOCIO) are interested in joining the information technology market in Vietnam, which has grown significantly and has become a regional example.

Welcoming the delegates to the 2014 ASOCIO ICT Summit, the Prime Minister said the Vietnamese Government considers information and communications technology as a new development tool to increase productivity and competitiveness.
Apart from establishing a national Steering Committee on the application of ICT, the Government has approved a mechanism on ICT services in State-run offices to enhance the IT application and management efficiency, he noted.
