Research and Markets: An Essential Report on the Internet in Vietnam

Dublin, Mar 08, 2010 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/f09dd9/vietnam_internet) has announced the addition of the "Vietnam - Internet" report to their offering.

Synopsis The Vietnamese government had for a long time been very cautious about allowing free access to online information, considering it a potential source of harm to the political, social and cultural integrity of the country. As a result, Vietnam came late to Internet, the first service being offered in 1997. The high cost of access and slow connections subsequently kept the countrys total Internet subscriber-base low for some time. The number of Internet users grew from about 10,000 in 1998 to an estimated 21 million by early 2009, almost 25% of the population, as the market continued to grow strongly. The government said in 2008 that it would inject US$6.3 billion over a two year period to lift user Internet penetration in country to 35%. This report looks at the development and regulation of Internet in Vietnam.
