Vietnam NetCitizens Report
2011 SUMMARY Internet usage and access According to official sources, internet penetration in Vietnam was at 31% by the end of 2010. Internet penetration in Vietnam is similar to countries like China, Philippines and Thailand. Vietnam has seen a more rapid growth of the internet over the last few years than most other countries in the region and is one of the fastest growing internet countries in the world. In urban Vietnam (12 cities included in the Vietnam NetCitizens Study 2011), more than 50% of the population have used the internet already. Hanoi has the highest internet penetration in Vietnam. Internet usage is mainly concentrated in higher economic classes. Whilst 70% of economic class A citizens use the internet, internet penetration is only about 20% for economic class D and E. Two-thirds of internet users access the internet every day, spending about 2 hours and 20 minutes on the internet on weekdays, less on weekends. The internet is usually accessed from home (78%) or work (31%). Internet cafes (26%) are widely used by younger Vietnamese and in smaller cities.

2011 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. Background The internet in Vietnam has seen a rapid development in recent years. There has been a steady increase in both internet users, the number of websites in Vietnam and the technical resources to provide internet connections are constantly expanding. In a period of strong growth, it is vital for all companies involved with the online market to have reliable information about all relevant aspects of internet usage. The Vietnam NetCitizens Report was initiated by Cimigo with the aim to create a better understanding of the Vietnamese internet market. The study has been available since 2003, initially across two cities; Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi. Later the number of cities was expanded to include Da Nang, Can Tho, Hai Phong and Nha Trang. The 2011 study includes a total of 12 cities, with 6 additional tier 2 cities (Thanh Hoa, Thai Nguyen, Quy Nhon, An Giang, Dong Nai and Vung Tau). 1.2. Survey methodology NetCitizens is conducted by Cimigo amongst Vietnamese internet users in urban Vietnam. This survey was conducted by Cimigo in November / December 2010, using Computer- Assisted Telephone Interviews (CATI). More than 3,300 interviews amongst internet users in Vietnam were conducted. Respondents for the survey were selected from 12 cities in Vietnam, using the following sample sizes: Total n=3376 Metro Vietnam HCM n=574 Hanoi n=534 Tier 1 cities Hai Phong n=320 Nha Trang n=319 Da Nang n=300 Can Tho n=300 Tier 2 cities Thanh Hoa n=204 Thai Nguyen n=178 Quy Nhon n=174 An Giang n=161 Dong Nai n=160 Vung Tau n=152 Copyright © 2011 Cimigo 6

2011 Additionally to the internet users interviewed, the demographic profiles of more than 3,000 non-internet users were collected in order to compare users to non-users. In total, more than 6,200 interviews were conducted for the NetCitizens 2011 study. For the selection of respondents, a random sample with quotas was captured. In each city, a representative sample of respondents was recruited using age and gender quotas based on the general urban population. The total results are weighted according to the city size to re- establish the original population proportion across cities. 1.3. Other data sources Data for internet usage and penetration in other countries was collected from www.internetworldstats.com Data about the development of the internet penetration in Vietnam was taken from www.vnnic.vn (the website of VNNIC, the Vietnam Internet Network Information Center).

2011 2. INTERNET USAGE AND ACCESS 2.1. Internet usage around the world and in Vietnam By the end of 2010, nearly 2 billion people used the internet worldwide, representing about 29% of the global population. The number of internet users has increased by nearly 300 million within only one year. The highest internet penetration is found in North America (77%), Australia / Oceania (61%) and Europe (58%). In Asia, penetration is at 22% and thus second lowest next to Africa (source: internetworldstats.com). In absolute numbers, more internet users can be found in Asia than in any other part of the world. Overall 42% of worldwide internet users are located in Asia. This is mainly due to the large population in China. Fig. 1.

In developed Asian countries (South Korea, Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Malaysia), internet usage is at 60-80%, with a slight year-to-year increase. In Asian emerging markets (China, Vietnam, Philippines and Thailand), internet penetration is around 20-30%, however internet growth rates per year are much higher. In developing markets (Laos, Cambodia) or populous countries with a large rural population (Indonesia, India), internet penetration is typically below 10%. Copyright © 2011 Cimigo 8

2011 Internet user growth rates differ strongly by country. In countries with high penetration rates, growth rates are lower than in countries with low penetration. Over the last 10 years, internet usage has grown by 100-200% in developed Asian countries (South Korea, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore) and by around 500 - 1500% in Asian emerging markets. Vietnam takes a unique position in this respect. Vietnam is the fastest growing internet country in the region and amongst the countries with the highest growth rates in the world. Since the year 2000, the number of internet users in Vietnam has multiplied by about 120. Ten years ago, internet penetration in Vietnam lied far behind most other Asian countries. In the meantime, Vietnam has caught up and internet usage has reached the level of other key emerging markets. Fig. 4.

Chatting is one of the most popular activities for young internet users, nearly half of 15- 24 year olds chat on a daily basis. Whilst e-mail is used more frequently by 25-34 year olds. Fig. 23.

2011 3.5. Blogging and social networks The category “Blogging and social networks” includes the following five activities: 1) visiting forums, 2) posting in forums, 3) visiting blogs, 4) writing blogs and 5) visiting a social network. Blogs and social networks are used by a substantial number of people in Vietnam and constitute an important part of the internet life. Nearly half of internet users have already visited forums, blogs and social networks. Daily usage is highest for social networks (15%), whilst forums and blogs are visited on a weekly basis more often. An average user takes a rather passive role in blogging; whilst 30% have visited blogs, only 20% have actually written a blog themselves. The same pattern is observed for forums: 50% have already visited a forum, but only 18% have actively posted in a forum. Blogging and social networking is clearly a field of activity for the young people. The majority of internet users below 25 have already visited a forum, blog and social network, usage is about 50% higher than older age groups. The main difference between age groups lies in the active contribution of content to the internet; users aged below 25 years are posting in forums and writing blogs three times as often as those to users aged 25-65 years. An interesting difference can be observed between genders. Females are visiting and writing blogs more often, whilst visiting and posting in forums is more popular with males. Also social networks are used by females more often. Use of all blogging and social networking activities increase with higher economic class. People from economic class A are twice as likely to use social networks than internet users from economic class D/E. Usage of forums is higher in the North (mainly Hanoi). Fig. 25.

2011 Usage of forums and social networks has been on a constant level since 2007. A decrease can be found for visiting blogs with at drop from 47% to 35%. The main reason for this might be the closing of Yahoo 360 in 2009, which had been by far the most popular blogging application in previous years. Note that these figures are percentages and not absolute numbers. With a growing internet penetration, the absolute number of people using blogs and social networks is increasing strongly. Fig. 26.

2011 5. INTERNET ATTITUDES This chapter will investigate the perceptions that users have towards the internet. Attitudes are divided into the following areas: social connection, information gathering, negative effects, online buying and online advertising. 5.1. Overview Information gathering and communication are the most important activities on the internet. Accordingly, the vast majority of internet users would strongly agree that „the internet is an important source for news and information‟ and that „the internet helps to connect with friends and meet new people‟. More and more the internet is becoming a social space where people can generate their own content. For a third of respondents, the internet is a place where they can express themselves. The internet also plays an increasingly important role for product selection and buying. Three quarters of internet users find out about new brands and products on the internet and about half of them think that they can buy a very wide choice of products online. However, trust in online payment is still low, as very few people think it is safe to buy products online. Fig. 41.

2011 5.4. Negative effects There might be some negative effects of internet usage, for example an increasing social isolation or negative effects on young people who might not use the internet in an appropriate way. However, scepticism about the effects of the internet is not very strong in Vietnam. Very few people say they feel lonelier in the age of internet. Opinions about the negative effect on young people are mixed, with about a third that would agree, a third that is neutral and a third that would not agree to this. Fig. 44.

2011 7. DEMOGRAPHIC DIFFERENCES At various stages, this report identifies differences in internet usage between demographic groups; e.g. females/males, higher/lower economic classes, users from the North/South etc. This chapter will summarise the main differences. Males vs. females Internet penetration is higher amongst males. 60% of males in urban Vietnam have accessed the internet, whilst only 50% of females have. Men have been using the internet for a longer time. Nearly half of men have used the internet for 5 years or more, whilst for females it is only 35%. The share of females who have just used the internet for 1 year is higher. Males are using the internet 10-20 minutes longer on an average day. They also access the internet more frequently than females. Women are more interested in visiting and writing blogs than men, they also keep their own blog more often. Males on the other hand use the internet to download movies and to play games on online applications more often. Old vs. young The internet is clearly used by younger people more often. The age group of 15-24 year olds is very active online; the internet penetration in this age group is the highest; they access the internet most frequently, spend more time online and conduct more activities. Young people are accessing the internet via mobile phone most often. The main differences between old and young lies in activities related to social interaction and entertainment. Young people are far more active in chatting, blogging and social networking. They also use the internet to listen to music, watch movies or play games more often. There is no age-specific difference with regards to using internet as an information gathering medium (e.g. read news, search for information). Hanoi vs. HCMC In Hanoi, internet penetration is higher than in HCMC. Owing to a historically higher internet penetration, Hanoi users have been online for a longer time. The internet is used for about 10 minutes longer in Hanoi on an average working day (but not on the weekend).
