The information was revealed during a meeting of the Vietnam IPv6 Task Force in
Hanoi on March 5.
The country ranked second in Southeast Asia, behind only Malaysia, and sixth in
Asia-Pacific.
IPv6 is paving the way for the explosion of smartphones, tablets, IoT devices
and other Internet-enabled devices, altering the way people, organisations and
governments are connected.
Many mobile service providers have planned to switch to all IPv6 service to
address the deficiency of internet addresses, simplify networks and save costs
and resources.
Vietnam has more than 58 million internet users out of its 90 million people and
in excess of 125 million mobile subscribers.-VNA
