Hue was the national capital until 1945, when Emperor Bao Dai abdicated and a Communist government was established in Ha Noi (Hanoi), in the north. While Bao Dai was briefly proclaimed "Head of State" with the help of the returning French colonialists in 1949 (although not with recognition from the Communists and the full acceptance of the Vietnamese people), his new capital was Sai Gon (Saigon), in the south.
Vietnam is poised to deploy Third Generation (3G) mobile technology, which will ensure improved voice and high-speed data services, industry insiders said.
According to Phan Hoang Duc, a member of VNPT's management board, Vietnam's telecom market witnessed an outstanding growth rate of some 30 percent in recent years, and 3G is where mobile development is headed.
“Vietnam's telecom market expects to reach a turnover of US$6-7 billion in 2010, which promises a huge market for mobile service providers.”
