Hand-over ceremony of the experimental results of a high-speed media from a satellite by the VSAT technology

In the afternoon of January 1, at the People’s Committee of Nam Cat Tien Commune, Dongnai Department of Science and Technology held the Hand-over ceremony of the experimental results of a high-speed media from a satellite by the VSAT technology for Nam Cat Tien Commune. There were attendances of Mr. Huynh Van Toi, a member of the standing committee and Head of the Provincial Party Committee’s Department of Propaganda and Training, Mr. Le Minh Khanh, a representative of the Ministry of Science and Technology and Mr. Le Quy Son, Vice-chairman of Hanoi Informatics Society.

There are two ways of helping remote and far-away communes have internet media: one is that the post office will install cables but this way will be costly in thinly populated and mountainous areas and the other is to use very small aperture

 terminal (VSAT). VSAT is a station of terrestrial two -way information exchange via satellites with each station equipped with a 3 meter pan-shaped antenna. VSAT is used not only to transmit credit card information and RFID information but also to provide internet service via satellites for remote areas, resulting in the same fast and stable media as that of ADSL with less costs. Realizing the benefits of using VSAT, Dongnai Department of Science and Technology has installed for experiments at Nam Cat Tien Commune since October 2006 at 7 locations: Communal Training Center, Nam Cat Tien Nursery School, Nam Cat Tien Junior High school, the Finance Office of the Commune, the Commune’s Party Committee and the Square. The results showed that the speed of the media is fast and stable. Ms. Trinh Thi Huong, Headmistress of Nam Cat Tien Nursery School said: “I am so glad because since the VSAT was used, the speed of internet access has become fast and stable. Teachers of the school have conditions to approach many sources of knowledge, serving effectively in the teaching. I also expect that the Department of Science and Technology will remain and expand further this model”. Mr. Le Quy Son, Vice-chairman of Hanoi Informatics Society also highly appreciates this: “VSAT technology has appeared for long in Vietnam but as far as I know Dongnai is the first province that has used it effectively in providing internet services for remote and far-away areas. I expect that Dongnai Department of Science and Technology will continue not only to widely multiply this model within the province but also to instruct its friendly provinces, helping to reduce the numerical distance between cities and countrysides.”

 Attending and steering, Mr. Huynh Van Toi, a member of the standing committee and Head of the Provincial Party Committee’s Department of Propaganda and Training highly appreciates what Dongnai Department of Science and Technology has done in bringing information technology closer to rural areas and expects its wider continuous application and the organization of classes to instruct people to access and use internet effectively.

With regard to the plan of multiplying the usage of high-speed media via VSAT technology, Mr. Pham Van Sang, Director of Dongnai Department of Science and Technology said: “The goal of the Department is that in 2007, 100% of communes with demands will have broad-band media. In order to do this, the Department will experiment the combination of VSAT and ADSL independently, coming to the experiment of VSAT and ADSL in combination with the provincial Post Office. Every commune will be supported with one model and 50% of the expenses for its projects.”
