Remove monopoly
Delegate Nguyen Thi Ngoc Xuan (Binh Duong) proposed that telecommunications infrastructure business should be added to the form of telecommunications business.

This is a development trend, many organizations and individuals have the need to use technical infrastructure rented from other suppliers to serve the development of business activities on telecommunications platforms. The delegate suggested that this content should be legalized for strict management.
According to the deputies, voters said that some enterprises holding telecommunications infrastructure have not created favorable conditions for other enterprises to participate in shared use or have set prices many times higher than the recommended unit prices. "This can easily lead to a monopoly situation," said Deputy Nguyen Thi Ngoc Xuan.
From there, the delegate proposed to add to the draft law to strictly manage the telecommunications system and manage the rental price of shared telecommunications infrastructure to promote synchronous development in this field.

Currently, telecommunications enterprises licensed by the Ministry of Information and Communications have inter-provincial or nationwide scope of operation, but there are no strict regulations binding enterprises when implementing infrastructure investment projects and providing services in other provinces and cities.
Faced with this reality, the delegate recommended that it is necessary to study and supplement regulations on licensing and operating conditions when establishing telecommunications infrastructure.
Accordingly, it is necessary to stipulate that enterprises operating telecommunications activities on a large scale when deploying services and technical infrastructure works in different localities must have offices or representatives and technical staff.
According to the delegate, this is to closely coordinate with state management agencies in solving issues related to local telecommunications infrastructure.
