Vietnam Launches Websites to Address E-Commerce Trading Issues

Vietnam’s Ministry of Industry and Trade recently launched websites to tackle e-commerce concerns related to illegal transactions, “unsatisfactory” purchase disputes and reporting on “general e-commerce problems,” according to a Jan. 6 Hong Kong Trade Development Council report. The release of the websites is part of a larger effort by Vietnam to target counterfeit trade online and intellectual property violations, the report said. The websites are also designed to improve information sharing between Vietnamese government agencies for enforcement, HKTDC said.
