Many phone subscribers only call or text

As of April, the number of mobile phone subscribers simply using calling and texting was still significant, at up to 45.2 million. The figure is considered an issue given Vietnam’s goal of becoming a digital society. The Ministry of Information and Communications has set a target of, by the end of this year, cutting the number of phone users only calling and texting to 6 million out of the current 123.8 million subscribers.
