HANOI (Reuters) - Vietnam's government said on Wednesday it will allow SpaceX to launch its Starlink satellite internet service on a trial basis in the country.

There is no limit on foreign ownership of the service, the government said in a statement, adding that the trial period will last until the end of 2030.
