HANOI (Vietnam News/Asia News Network): Minister of Information and Communications Nguyễn Mạnh Hùng said that the Government would sign a decree on frequency auctions in the fourth quarter so that the ministry could grant 4G/5G frequencies for operators to invest in increasing capacity and especially 5G coverage next year.

The minister also noted that the country's digital infrastructure strategy aimed to rank in the Top 30 in the world before 2025, so that businesses in Vietnam would have modern digital infrastructure to develop the digital economy. Vietnam also set a target of 100 per cent of people using smartphones by 2023.
