Not interested in Vietnamese domain names

According to VNNIC, since November, Vietnamese enterprises have the right to register to use domain names in Vietnamese for free when registering .vn domain names. However, not all businesses are happy to receive, because there are too many obstacles.

The first difficulty that Vietnamese domain names have to face, is the expression of Vietnamese on the background of search tools and Internet browser has not been smooth.

Representative of Vietnam Internet Network Information Center (VNNIC) said that according to regulations, domain names in Vietnamese will be represented by Vietnamese alphabet characters, Unicode font, ensuring the meaning of each word and display. display right at the address lines, search the Internet.

Accordingly, businesses will avoid confusion, easy to create disputes in the form of unsigned domain names, help domain names register more clearly.

In addition to unsigned English and Vietnamese domain names, Vietnamese people also have the option to access domain names in their mother tongue, a solution to honor Vietnamese language on the international communication field.

There are quite a number of reasons for being debated and debated, but until now when things have come into reality, they have not yet been consummated.

According to the first IT companies, the Vietnamese domain name must be confronted with the Vietnamese language in the background of search tools and Internet browsers have not been smooth.

Many free browser tools currently only support Vietnamese Unicode fonts in a limited way, with no guarantee on the search field.

The Internet Explorer Version 6.0 software has to install the support software provided by VNNIC to display the domain name in Vietnamese.

VNNIC said that, in the new version 7.0, this browser allows displaying Vietnamese domain names, but when reinstalling, it requires copyrighted Windows. In fact, most personal computers in Vietnam have not complied with copyright laws, obviously, this is a big challenge.

A Da Nang informatics enterprise analyzed, the current price of Windows copyright is 80 USD / machine, too high compared to the income of many people and with enterprises there are about 20 machines. So spending a large amount of royalties just to help show the domain name in Vietnamese seems to be funny to many people.

Another obstacle is that not always the tech community, as well as people with Internet habits, are used to using Vietnamese keyboards when surfing the web. This is a reality that many businesses, technology organizations and even online exchanges have to face.

An administrator of the Informatics Forum hanheldvn.com.vn said that many members of the Forum still accept deletion of unsigned posts, because they are not used to using Vietnamese keyboards in network communication, especially when they are abroad.

Some young people in the country today are used to typing chat on yahoo or other chat tools without accents, although these software have supported Vietnamese for a long time. The community of online gamers does not have the habit of using Vietnamese typing when exchanging.

All converge a fairly large drag. Are Vietnamese domain names the choice of people accessing the Internet, or do they still use unsigned names? Obviously, everyone can find the answer.

It is worth mentioning, that the majority of those who choose not to hide themselves are young people, owners of the future Internet and most of them tend to use English as well. But once they did not actively support the search and use of Vietnamese domain names, the ability to promote this domain name would be even more difficult.

For example, the network administrator of an enterprise is not familiar with the Vietnamese domain name, when the leader of the proposed unit uses only the inconvenient argument in communication, it can convince victory.

Moreover, for many businesses, website creation is to expand relations outside, requiring convenience for customers. Therefore, Vietnamese domain names will not be used frequently with them and registration only has symbolic and formal meaning!

With the above reality, it is clear that the application of domain names in Vietnamese at the present stage is not completely bright. VNNIC must also acknowledge that, although it is worth using the same domain name level 2.vn, the domain name in Vietnamese is only an additional solution, increasing the friendliness of the Vietnamese community who do not know English and the word not changing available domain names.

VNNIC has opened the direction to encourage businesses to use by giving Vietnamese domain name addresses to English or Vietnamese domain name websites without registration of registered enterprises. But this solution is only effective, because after all, the development of Vietnamese domain names is decided by users.
