Initial results

Building a digital government is the first step that determines the success or failure of digital transformation in the administrative sector, serving the people. According to the People's Committee of Nam Tra My district, the information technology (IT) infrastructure at state agencies in the area has basically met the requirements for application deployment in the management, operation and activities of units and commune-level People's Committees. Accordingly, the average ratio of computers/officers and civil servants at the district level is 100% and at the commune level is 95%.

Communes in the district have been equipped with network infrastructure and relatively fast wifi to serve the exploitation and application of IT. Up to now, 26/35 villages in the district have 3G/4G waves (74%); 100% of administrative centers, commune health stations, 25/29 schools in the district have fiber optic Internet (86%). The online video conferencing system is connected to 4 levels (central - provincial - district - commune).

Network operators have invested in 45 broadcasting stations (30 Viettel stations, 13 VNPT stations, 2 MobiFone stations) in the district, ensuring coverage in 10/10 communes. On that basis, Nam Tra My has deployed the installation of a community wifi system in 31/35 villages, 40 IP radio clusters (wireless broadcasting) in 4 communes of Tra Van, Tra Tap, Tra Leng, Tra Nam, 35/35 villages have community technology teams.

For the digital economy, it has initially brought confidence to businesses, cooperatives, and business households in the district.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Huynh - Director of Huynh Sam Company Limited said: “Digital technology is highly effective for the company's business, especially when we participate in the district's e-commerce trading floor. This creates trust for customers in medicinal products and Ngoc Linh ginseng.

We have an account, take pictures, create promotional videos for products to post on the page. In addition to the district page, we also thoroughly apply social networks to buy and sell products, payment is also electronic payment via bank account so it is very convenient.

Trying to keep up with the general trend

Mr. Tran Van Man - Vice Chairman of Nam Tra My District People's Committee said that the application of digital certificates and digital signatures has been deployed to 100% of state agencies under the district People's Committee and commune level.

Agencies and units have effectively applied the issued digital signatures, promptly meeting the urgent needs of the agencies in ensuring authentication and information security.

Up to 90% of electronic documents sent are digitally signed, effectively serving the direction and management work, saving costs, creating a modern working environment, actively contributing to administrative reform and improving work efficiency, increasing publicity and transparency in work management and handling of documents for the people. However, there are still many difficulties, so from the government to the people must make efforts to catch up with the trend.

Some of the current difficulties of the locality are that although the computer system has been invested in synchronously, its quality is uneven; most of the computers have been used for many years and are degraded, not qualified to install specialized software and applications; most of the computers do not have software systems, anti-virus tools, and information security.

LAN system and broadband Internet transmission speed in some units and localities are still limited and centralized connection management is not yet available.

Telecommunications infrastructure in residential areas is still not guaranteed, many areas still have no signal, signal dips but cannot invest in BTS transmission stations because there is no national grid. Therefore, the application of IT from state agencies to the people has not yet achieved the desired results.

In the coming time, Nam Tra My district has identified 3 key groups of tasks in digital transformation, including building digital government, digital economy, digital society, with 23 specific tasks; the total estimated implementation cost is more than 10.6 billion VND from capital sources of national target programs, provincial and district budgets and other mobilized sources.

The district will continue to request telecommunications units to invest in eliminating the remaining white spots and signal dips in the district. Continue to establish support points for ethnic minorities to access IT, apply it to life and serve the current comprehensive digital transformation.
