HA NOI (Biz Hub) — Minister of Information and Communications Truong Minh Tuan urged enterprises to send recent reports on 4G testing results as the Government had policies to accelerate the licensing for 4G this year.

The Ministry of Information and Communications (MIC) held a review meeting for the first half of this year on Tuesday.

Previously, many enterprises and localities have proposed to the ministry to grant 4G license soon as the technology is a foundation for cities and provinces to implement e-Government, Internet of Things (IoT) and modern information systems.

Three Vietnamese telecommunication giants including Viettel, VNPT and MobiFone have piloted the technology. The pilot is expected to end on October 23.

However, due to actual needs, the Viet Nam Telecommunication Authority (VNTA) under MIC has asked companies to send testing reports earlier.

Therefore, the department will co-operate with enterprises to evaluate quality and then give instruction for enterprises to complete documents for licenses. — VNS
