Vietnam will convert all local networks to IPv6, under a sweeping digital infrastructure strategy announced last week.

The plan emerged in Decision No. 1132/QD-TTg – signed into existence by permanent deputy prime minister Nguyen Hoa Binh – and defines goals for 2025 and 2030.

The 2030 ambitions are more significant, and include a requirement for all networks to use IPv6, universal 1Gbit/sec fiber-to-the-premises, 5G covering 99 percent of the population, and connection of another six submarine cables to provide the nation with 350TB/sec of network capacity. One of those new cables is to be state-owned.
