Speaking at a national workshop on legal issues for building and improving
Vietnam’s legal system amid the fourth Industrial Revolution in Hanoi on June
24, the Government leader said training legal human resources must keep pace
with new trends of technology development.
He asked relevant ministries and sectors to urgently review the current legal
documents to better assess their compatibility with the fourth Industrial
Revolution and promptly propose directions for amendments and supplements.
PM Phuc requested the Ministry of Justice to focus on studying and putting forth
specific issues as well as solutions to speed up the building, issuance and
effective implementation of laws.
Meanwhile, he asked the Ministry of Planning and Investment to soon complete and
submit to the Government for consideration and promulgation of a national
strategy on the fourth Industrial Revolution, and closely coordinate with the
Ministry of Information and Communications to build and complete a national
digitization project.
The PM urged the Ministry of Public Security to urgently complete a national
identity database, serving as a foundation for e-identification and
e-authentication, and information sharing in a safe and effective manner; and
soon fulfill guidelines for the implementation of the Law on Cyber Security,
thus ensuring both digital social-economic development and network security.
He asked the State Bank of Vietnam to assess the impact of appearance and
circulation of digital currencies or e-wallets, thus proposing appropriate
policies, and soon submit to the Government for the issuance of regulations on
new forms of capital mobilization and credit.
The Ministry of Information and Communications should focus on improving
institutions, policies and laws to promote the development of information
technology infrastructure, soon deploy 5G network and meet requirements of the
application of the Internet of Things (IoT) as soon as possible, and coordinate
with the State Bank of Vietnam in promoting e-payment, with new forms of payment
via mobile (mobile money) or e-wallets, he said.
Vietnam is standing in front of a great opportunity to realise its aspiration
for a prosperous and powerful nation if it can effectively apply core
technologies of the fourth Industrial Revolution such as artificial
intelligence, IoT, big data, block technology, cloud computing into
socio-economic development, he stressed.
The government leader affirmed that the quality of Vietnam’s economic growth has
improved remarkably in recent years, and a number of technological enterprises
have enjoyed spectacular growth and become prestigious brands such as Viettel
and VNG.
The PM asked relevant agencies to identify exactly legal issues related to
technologies, in order to build the nation’s effective legal system amid the
current revolution.
Hosted by the Ministry of Justice, the workshop began a national discussion on
the future of the legal system in the context that the fourth Industrial
Revolution has strongly impacted on Vietnam’s socio-economic development.
