On February 10, 2015, the Ho Chi Minh City Computer Association (HCA) organized a formal visit to the Ho Chi Minh City People’s Committee. This event brought together representatives from several key organizations, including the Vietnam Information Security Association (VNISA) and numerous information technology companies operating in Vietnam. The visit marked a significant engagement between industry leaders and local government officials, aiming to build stronger communication channels and align development goals.

Purpose of the Visit

The primary aim of the visit was to extend formal greetings to the People’s Committee and the Department of Information and Communication. This occasion allowed IT companies and associations to express their respect and appreciation to city leaders. More importantly, the event provided a direct platform to share current business conditions with authorities, particularly the benefits and challenges companies face in their daily operations.

This exchange created space for productive dialogue. Businesses presented their views on market conditions, technological advancements, and the barriers that limit growth. In return, city leaders gained deeper insights into the private sector's current landscape and were able to assess the support structures required to address these issues effectively.

Remarks from the Vice Chairman

During the meeting, Mr. Le Manh Ha, Vice Chairman of the Ho Chi Minh City People’s Committee, emphasized the government’s commitment to advancing the use of information technology in administrative processes throughout 2015. He stated clearly that information technology would play an increasingly important role in public services and government operations. This declaration set the tone for ongoing cooperation between public institutions and private IT firms.

Mr. Le Manh Ha also noted that Ho Chi Minh City viewed the growth of the IT sector as a strategic priority. He acknowledged both the achievements and the obstacles that local technology firms face. His statement reflected a strong willingness from the city’s leadership to offer real, timely solutions that support the development of the IT sector. According to him, helping companies overcome existing challenges is necessary to ensure long-term growth and competitiveness.

Government Support for IT Sector Growth

Following the Vice Chairman’s comments, local authorities reaffirmed their intent to provide practical support to IT companies. This support includes improving policies that encourage innovation, removing outdated regulations, and addressing specific concerns raised by the business community. The government committed to facilitating stronger public-private partnerships by reducing unnecessary bureaucracy and promoting transparent cooperation between departments and businesses.

The city also emphasized the need for better infrastructure and digital services, which are critical for IT companies to scale operations. In doing so, Ho Chi Minh City reinforced its position as a key supporter of Vietnam’s broader digital transformation strategy.

By recognizing technology companies as valuable contributors to the economy, the People’s Committee acknowledged the importance of an enabling environment that allows these businesses to reach their full potential. Direct engagement such as this visit reflects a shared understanding between the government and industry stakeholders.

Significance of Private Sector Participation

The presence of VNISA and various IT companies at the event added weight to the discussions. These organizations represent a wide range of interests, including cybersecurity, software development, and digital services. Their participation highlighted the diversity of Vietnam’s growing tech sector and underlined the need for policy decisions that consider various perspectives within the industry.

This type of cooperation not only helps build mutual trust but also promotes more targeted policies. Businesses benefit from a clearer understanding of the government's direction, while city leaders gain access to firsthand knowledge of industry trends and business realities.
