According to the five-year memorandum, which begins this month, VTF and Intel will offer training in internet skills to residents in rural areas.

Intel will also write computer manuals, develop software applications, and translate the software language into Vietnamese.

VTF and Intel will work with government agencies to popularise internet use. Both sides will manufacture computers at a reasonable price and offer after-sales maintenance services.
