Vietnam - E-commerce application encouraged in Vietnam



(VOV) - In addition to popularizing and applying e-commerce, Vietnam should build a legal corridor with specific regulations to protect consumers from spam, advertisements, and illegal disclosure of personal information.

Toshihiro Eto from Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade, & Industry made the proposal at an international workshop on boosting Vietnam-Japan cooperation in e-commerce, held in Ho Chi Minh City on November 25. He emphasized the importance of preventing young people from accessing negative material, ensuring fair competition, and supporting small and medium- sized businesses taking part in e-commerce.

Participants in the event agreed that most Vietnamese businesses are only using e-commerce for exchanging emails, advertising their products, and seeking information.

In order to make e-commerce an effective tool, businesses must take advantage of its special applications, they said.

Under the target for 2015, Vietnam will have organizations providing digital signature certification service and will popularize the application of e-commerce among businesses and consumers.
