The Government of Vietnam has targeted national projects and programmes towards the development of information technology infrastructure and wide application of IT in state agencies, with a view to creating a basis for building e-government architecture and raising labour productivity, as well as reducing operational costs. 

These remarks were made by Nguyen Minh Hong, Deputy Minister of Information and Communications, at FutureGov Forum Vietnam 2011, in Hanoi on June 14.

The national projects and programmes also focus on providing online information and public services, making state agencies’ operations more transparent and providing better services for people and businesses, he said.

The Deputy Minister spoke of solutions being taken in Vietnam, such as digital signatures in transactions and completion of national database on population and land, and application of new technologies. The country is building e-government architecture to enhance services and as the new mode of harnessing public-private human resources.

At the forum, representatives from the ministries of industry and trade, health, and finance shared models of applying IT and orientations for development, in order to improve the efficiency of online public services in the management system.
