Mr. Yoshitaka Matsubara, President of ALLIANT Inc. (Japan) - a company specializing in providing strategic consulting services and market entry for high-tech companies, and also a member of the Advisory Council of Cyberworld (Vietnam) - recently had visit to Vietnam.

On this occasion, he shared his thoughts on 3G potential, mobile data applications and BREW in Vietnam market.

What do you comment on the potential of 3G, mobile data applications and BREW in Vietnam market?

Although I have come here many times, I do not dare say that I am "very familiar" with Vietnamese market and culture.

However, through personal contacts with partners and with my observations on the development and trend of information and telecommunications technology in the past few years in developing countries in the region, I have It is evident that Vietnam has adopted the best possible approach to 'jump' from limited landline networks and 2G to ADSL and CDMA services for both voice and data services. Mobile data.

I am also very impressed with all 3G CDMA operators in introducing EV-DO functionality for their mining operations as well. I can see that Vietnam has a great opportunity to catch up with the remaining area, and can 'cross over' if EV-DO (and Rev. A) are deployed in the country.

In addition, most of my partners and myself were very surprised with the speed of Internet subscribers in Vietnam.

Since only in the past 5 years, when we never thought that Vietnam would soon be able to be a market of content / application services, and now Vietnam is definitely the most potential market for with these IP and Internet-based services.

3G is definitely a must have not only for Vietnam but also for all countries in the world, especially in developing countries.

The enthusiasm of Vietnamese youths to face challenges in the mobile data industry, and BREW will be the best combination for Vietnam to lead this industry in the country, region and country. sacrifice.

With extensive knowledge and extensive experience in the IT industry as well as having good relations with the mobile market, do you have any recommendations for operators, the community in general and the youth of Vietnam? in particular?

There are many things I want to share, if I have to say briefly, I would like to recommend that the Government of Vietnam should have more flexible rules for online games and other IP-based applications and content. This is a good and fast platform for 3G services in the future.

Operators should deploy EV-DO or WCDMA, HSDPA . as soon as possible, BREW application for a common environment to enable the domestic IT community to create and cooperate in service provision .

Vietnamese youth should learn and become familiar with this new opportunity, ready to participate in the most potential industry in at least some coming decades. Participating in events like the 'Creative Summer' competition is the best. Watch closely and register for training courses on mobile data application development as much as possible.

As a member of CyberWorld Corp in Vietnam, can you share your ideas about potential gaming applications in Vietnam?

As a member of this company, I see Vietnam has a great potential in the game industry.

CyberWorld has an excellent vision of introducing educational games and is highly strategic instead of just simple entertainment. CyberWorld also has a clear roadmap to convert their games from 'media-based desktop / laptop IP' to BREW 3G games for the mobile world.
