He also applauded its active role in the telecoms boom in Vietnam, helping to universalize mobile and internet services, form the country’s electronics industry, master the 5G technology, and work towards 6G.
The State leader noted that aside from doing business, Viettel also needs to contribute more to the country’s external affairs, produce high-tech weapons and equipment for the army, and continue upholding its pioneering role in the development of a digital government, digital society, and digital economy.
It is also necessary to continue developing tools and measures for protecting cyber-security, thereby helping safeguard political security and social order, including national sovereignty in cyberspace, he said.
President Thuong asked the group to step up overseas telecoms investment, export more services to the world, fulfill its social responsibility, adhere to law, and improve the quality of life for its staff members.
He also demanded Viettel to press on with training human resources and building a clean and strong Party organization.
At a meeting with the group on Thursday, the President was introduced to Viettel’s latest high-tech products at the Hoa Lac High Tech Park and at Viettel headquarters.
