The special week will feature various activities, including exhibitions and seminars on information security infrastructure, semiconductor technology, and notably, a plenary session on digital technology.
President Lam Nguyen Hai Long of the Ho Chi Minh City Information Technology Association described this activity as highly meaningful as it reflects the city's past digital transformation achievements and future development orientation.
Ho Chi Minh City sets a goal that land management, construction permits, and urban planning all will be carried out digitally by 2025 to facilitate data sharing, updating, and analysis to support effective urban governance. Additionally, the city plans to digitize health records, social security data, and ensure that all city databases are securely stored and managed at the City Data Center.
