Editor's Notes
In term of location, TNU is situated at the Capital of Thai Nguyen City, which is also the capital of NMA of Vietnam
That is certainly match the project request, which is IAC should be located in an area where a high number of people and easily access…
Let me show you in details:
You see TNU is the central hub for training, scientific research and technology in NMA of Vietnam. Currently TNU has 86k students….
Please pay attention to the fact that 30% of our students are ethnic minority people, who have very limited opportunity to enjoy the benefits of IT & Internet
Before I finish my presentation, let me express our simple wish to Korean friends here:
We are interested in e-government as Vietname
Most of government leaders in NMA provinces are TNU’s alumni and always willing to take part in E-government development project implemented by TNU.
