Vietnam strives towards building the digital government

On the basis of results achieved in the process of building an e-Government, Vietnam is preparing to move to a digital Government according to the policy set out in Resolution 52- NQ/TW of the Politburo.

The information was given at the 15th national conference on e-Government (eGov) held in HCM City on Thursday. Speaking at the seminar, Ngo Hai Phan, director of the Administrative Procedures Control Agency (APCA) under the Government Office, said the Government Office had co-ordinated with ministries, branches, localities, IT corporations, domestic and foreign experts to focus on building and implementing many important information systems as the foundation for the e-Government development of the country in the 2018-20 period.

This also provided the impetus for the implementation of an e-Government and contributing to the realization of the dual goals of economic development while minimizing the negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on people and businesses, he said. 

It was reported at the conference that the National Public Service Portal had provided 1,039 public services and 6,842 administrative procedures online at four levels by the end of last month. The portal had also reached over 60 million visits, over 235,000 registered accounts, more than 15 million synchronized records, and over 295,000 online records. The online payment system on the portal was also deployed from March, performing over 9,000 transactions.

Currently, according to the e-Government development ranking of the United Nations, Vietnam has increased two places, ranked 86th out of 193 countries, 24th out of 47 in Asia, and 6th in Southeast Asia. However, in order to reach the target to be in the top four countries in ASEAN by 2025 and among the top 70 countries in e-Government, there were still many things to be done, said the director, including listening to domestic and international experts and organizations in order to perfect the roadmap and choose suitable solutions for the country.

Pham Anh Tuan, Deputy Minister of Information and Communications, said that the policy on building a digital Government was outlined in Resolution 52-NQ/TW of the Politburo. Accordingly, it targeted to basically complete the digital transformation for the Party and State agencies by 2025 and complete the building of digital government by 2030.

To implement this policy, the Ministry of Information and Communications is currently preparing to submit to the Prime Minister to issue a national strategy on digital government for the 2021-2025 period.
