| Abstract | Information is a national resource whose promotion and use requires guidance and initiative
through policy development. The political, economic, social and technological development of
Vietnam requires it. This study addresses: 1) the information access parameters in Vietnam; 2)
the need for an information policy in Vietnam; 3) and the issues and challenges to be addressed
in an information policy. This study describes the Vietnam information infrastructure in detail
by examining information sector from a supply, demand, and environment perspective.
Information providers and information seekers are surveyed on various descriptive factors. The
role of the government in the development of the sector is described within the operating
environment. The results of these study are used to draft recommendations to the policy makers
and suppliers, who are the main forces deciding the development on the information sector in
the future. |
