MPWT, Viettel Join Hands to Digitise Cambodia’s Public Works & Transport Services

The Ministry of Public Works and Transport (MPWT) has established a working group in collaboration with Vietnam’s largest telecom firm Viettel to compile a draft master plan to digitise Cambodia’s public works and transport services.

According to the MPWT announcement released recently, the working group was established following the MoU between the ministry and the Viettel signed in October last year.

Led by the ministry’s department of technology and public affairs, the working group’s main task is to compile the digitalisation master plan by collecting comprehensive inputs from discussion and research.

The establishment is also in line with the ministry’s long-term vision of boosting the use of IoT in the ministry’s service and working processes to increase efficiency and transparency.

Recently, the ministry also revealed a plan to create another application on top of its current road care app to monitor road construction work quality. (Read more)
