The e-government initiative is a critical part of Vietnam’s national
reform and regional competitiveness
The government has passed numerous resolution to develop a plan through 2019-2020 with a vision towards
2025. The focus areas are:
Developing ICT infrastructure- Issuing more
licenses for 3G and 4G networks across all
provinces and focusing on wireless rather than
fixed line channels
Regulatory reform-to ease digitization in the
government and remove hurdles & encourage local
business to adopt technology. Eg,. The government has
signed a MOU for information exchange and
technology transfer with the government of Korea.
Similar relations are also being considered with
Singapore, Russia and Indonesia,
Building innovation eco-systems through further
funding of scientific and research infrastructure- eg
the national innovation center has been announced
in Hanoi, The center will be home to 40 large
technology companies, as well as 150 startups and
SMEs and 15 venture investment funds
Strengthening technological skills amongst all
levels of the country- eg. Google and the
Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT) established
a strategic relationship on August 15 2019 aiming
to provide digital skills training for 500,000
employees of small and medium-sized
enterprises (SMEs)

Conclusion
5 Opportunity Areas in Vietnam- 2020 to 2025
01
04
03
02
05
06
1. Fintech
Low credit-card penetration (31%) and
a booming e-commerce sector will
drive the need for alternative payment
mechanisms
5. Agriculture 4.0
EUVNFTA and CPTPP will drive
investments in agriculture. The
government is also driving this with
supportive investment policies
3. E-commerce
E-commerce grew by 30% in 2018. 70%
of e-commerce is concentrated in Hanoi
and HCMC, and there is huge potential
in Tier 2 cities and rural areas.
6. Edtech & Skills Development
With international companies and
standards flooding the countries via FDI,
there is need to bridge the skills gap.
Edtech will be the bridge between the
university graduates and the needs of
corporates. 2018, saw an investment of
USD 55 Mil in this sector
4. Artificial Intelligence / IOT / Cloud
The digital economy is expected to grow from USD 9 Bil in
2018 to 30 Bil in 2025.
Vietnam is the fastest growing market for cloud
computing, growing more than 50% annually since 2015
E-government and industry 4.0 will continue to drive the
demand for these elements.
2. Cybersecurity
While all other signs are positive,
Cybersecurity is the single largest threat
to the sector. Vietnam is currently the 3rd
largest home for botnets after India and
China.
In 2018, Over 60 Mil computers were
infected with malicious codes.
The public and private sector are
increasingly making security a priority
Key Risks and impediments to Vietnam’s ICT Sector
Bureaucracy and
regulatory Delays
Cyber Security
Risks
Skills storage Digital Disruption
While the current
government recognizes
the need for the digital
reformation, the laws and
mechanisms are still
lacking.
Getting an optimal
regulatory structure may
take time, although the
signs are still encouraging
Cyber Security is the
largest risk faced by
Vietnam’s ICT sector. If not
addresses by a strict
regulatory environment
and high local skills, this
may turn investors away
Despite the demand for
skilled labor, 38% of the
Vietnams workforce is
unskilled.
Vietnam will face a
shortage of 1,000,000 IT
skilled staff by 2020,
leading to vulnerabilities,
especially in cybersecurity.
Among all the ASEAN,
markets Vietnam faces
one of the largest risks or
disruptive job losses due
to digitization.
According to the ILO, 70%
of wage workers in
Vietnam are at risk of
loosing their jobs due to
automations and
digitization.
