To quickly become a powerful country in

domestic IT brands within both the local and world markets.
This according to participants at the Second Plenary Conference of information technology (IT) professionals in Hanoi on November 25.
Speaking at the event, Minister of Information and Communications Le Doan Hop said that to become a strong IT nation, Vietnam must focus investment on developing its broadband infrastructure, training high-quality human resources in the field, and developing its e-government and e-citizens.
Vietnam has taken great strides forward in IT and communications in recent years, especially the fields of television, telecommunications and the growth of its domestic IT industry, Hop said.
However, local enterprises have yet to produce hardware components to meet local demand and still rely heavily on imports, he said, adding that this is hindering IT development in the country.
According to Prof. Dr. Do Trung Ta, President of the National Council on Scientific and Technological Policies, right now, Vietnam needs to build large IT brands and strengthen the image of its made-in-Vietnam offerings through high-quality and creative IT products and services./.
