The highlight of BroadcastAsia2010 will be the forum on data collecting and transmitting platforms. Sports programmes, movies and games are expected to be more popular and the FIFA World Cup release in June is definitely a catalyst for the strong increase in growth of content. Asia, home to many world-leading manufacturers of audiovisual equipment like Sony and Panasonic, is emerging as the leader of 3D technology.

Digital billboard exhibitors will display advanced technologies such as touch screen monitors and professional screen applications in Asia Pacific. A new feature at this BroadcastAsia International Conference is the seminar on creative content production (CCT). The workshop will explore the latest trends and methods of cost savings.

More than 1,000 professional visitors from Vietnam attended CommunicAsia2009 and BroadcastAsia2009, demonstrating the importance of this event for ICT businesses in Vietnam.

Despite numerous challenges in 2009, the ICT sector of Vietnam still made remarkable growth.

Mobile subscribers accounted for more than 85 percent of total phone users, while fixed lines took up 15 percent.

3G-powered mobile internet services are becoming more popular in Vietnam and the new technology is playing an increasingly important role in the infrastructure and subscriber development of domestic service suppliers. In 2009, the number of internet users exceeded 22 million, or over 25 percent of the population, while the number of broadband internet subscribers reached 2.89 million, or about 3 percent of the population.
