US Businesses Eye Viet Nam’s Telecommunications
US businesses have witnessed the achievements of Viet Nam in developing information and communication technology (ICT) and are eager investing in the sector, said a representative of US Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA).
“We see growth in Viet Nam. We have done some market research on the market here. A lot of our companies are interested in Viet Nam and that is why we are here for talks,” Mike Nunes, Director of TIA’s International and Government Affairs told a Viet Nam News Agency correspondent on the sidelines of the Viet Nam-US ICT Dialogue, in Ha Noi on September 18.
The information technology industry has grown by 28.6 percent since 2002, according to statistics from the National Institute of Posts and Telematics Strategy.
In a report, the US Department of Commerce (DOC) describes low tariffs, a positive investment climate, and an improving standards system as the three major factors which are encouraging US ICT manufacturing firms to do business in Viet Nam.
An increasing number of electronics companies are looking for low-cost manufacturing and assembly sites in Viet Nam, according to DOC. Noteworthy among the investments in 2006 was Intel’s announcement of a 1 billion USD investment for a semiconductor packaging and testing facility.
In a bid to boost the investment environment in Viet Nam, the Vietnamese government is mapping out a series of master plans for development of the software industry, e-commerce, and IT human resources to 2010, Vice President of the National Institute of Posts and Telematics Strategy Pham Manh Lam said in a speech delivered at the September 18 dialogue.
He added that the government will also continue to create the most favourable conditions to turn ICT into a key sector.
