The Vietnamese Ministry of Information and Communications and Japanese Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications co-chaired a policy dialogue on ICT in Hanoi on September 15.
The dialogue focused on discussing policies and a strategy for the development of 4G/5G networks after the digitalisation of television in Vietnam, policies on protecting key information systems and the development of infrastructure for the internet of things.
Speaking at the dialogue, Deputy Minister of Information and Communications Phan Tam said Vietnam and Japan became strategic partners in 2009 and bilateral cooperation in ICT has expanded in the past time.
