Digital technology industry faces severe shortage of skilled workers
After Deputy Prime Minister Le Thanh Long submitted to the National Assembly a report on the draft Law on Digital Technology Industry, the National Assembly discussed this draft law today.
Deputy Vu Hai Quan highlighted that the lack of highly skilled professionals is the primary obstacle hindering the current digital technology industry’s progress. Therefore, addressing this issue must be the critical breakthrough whereas the draft law reflects this only vaguely. Therefore, the deputy emphasized that a comprehensive human resource development policy, coupled with strategies to attract talent, should be regarded as a pivotal factor in advancing the digital technology industry.
Furthermore, it’s essential to clearly outline which types of digital data are permissible for trading and which ones are strictly off-limits for exploitation and trade. Deputy Tran Thi Dieu Thuy also from HCMC remarked that this legislative initiative presents a valuable opportunity for the country to advance digital technology in line with the established objectives.
