Jul 02, 2014 / 02:30 PM

PM Nguyen Tan Dung has approved a plan on developing the coastal communication system of Viet Nam to 2020 with a direction towards 2030.

The plan is aimed to ensure the provision of information and communication services for people and vehicles at seas and on islands; facilitate the management, natural disaster prevention, search and rescue; serve maritime safety and security, protect maritime environment, national defence and security, as well as boost economic development in these regions.

Accordingly, digital technology will be applied on MF/HF/VHF bandwidths at the stations in Hai Phong and Ho Chi Minh cities.

Infrastructure ramp-ups will be carried out in other localities, includingHon Gai, Thanh Hoa, Ben Thuy, Hon La, Hue, Đa Nang, Nha Trang, Ly Son, Quy Nhon, Phu Yen, Phan Rang, Phan Thiet, Can Tho, Ca Mau, Kien Giang, where many vehicles are operating and demand for information and communication services is high.

New stations will be built in Nam Dinh, Quang Binh, Ben Tre, Tien Giang, Bac Lieu provinces, Phu Quy island and Truong Sa (Spratly) archipelago.

Backup information receivers will be developed in four regions, including those from Quang Ninh to Ha Tinh, Quang Binh to Quy Nhon, Phu Yen to Ninh Thuan and Binh Thuan to Kien Giang.

Surveillance technologies, station-to-station management solutions, optical cables and satellite-linked networks will be used for the system.

New services on emergency information will be provided in line with the International Maritime Organization’s orientation while other services on positioning vehicles will be deployed.
