The Prime Minister emphasized that digital transformation is a difficult task, requiring high determination, drastic action and clearly defining key tasks, solutions, and breakthroughs to create momentum for the digital transformation process, developing the digital economy and digital society. The Project on Developing the Application of Data on Population, Identification and Electronic Authentication to Serve the National Digital Transformation in the 2022 - 2025 Period, with a Vision to 2030 (Project 06) chaired by the Ministry of Public Security, is an important and breakthrough project in promoting national digital transformation, creating many utilities and services, bringing practical benefits, serving people and businesses better and more effectively.

In that spirit, to overcome the shortcomings in the recent past, create momentum and breakthroughs for digital transformation and develop the digital economy and digital society, the Prime Minister requested ministries, ministerial-level agencies, agencies under the Government, People's Committees of provinces and cities, based on the approach and lessons learned from the successful implementation of Project 06, each ministry, sector and locality should study and find their own breakthroughs, develop a digital transformation project similar to Project 06 and ensure connectivity with Project 06, focus on directing the completion and success of the implementation from now until the end of 2025.
The Prime Minister noted that when developing a digital transformation project, it is necessary to choose to include breakthroughs that have a profound impact on the sectors, fields and localities under their management, because solving these issues will create the main driving forces to promote activities and create breakthroughs in digital transformation and develop the digital economy of ministries, sectors and localities. The breakthroughs can focus on the content of digital economic development with 4 pillars: information technology industry, digital economy, digital management and digital data or developing digital government, digital administration, smart cities according to the principle of taking people and businesses as the center.
The Prime Minister assigned ministers and chairmen of provincial and municipal People's Committees to directly preside over determining breakthroughs, ensuring that there are breakthrough projects to implement digital transformation in their sectors, fields, and management scope; focusing on completing the project from now until the end of 2025.

Monthly meetings are held to review and thoroughly resolve difficulties and obstacles in the process of implementing the project.

The Ministry of Planning and Investment shall preside over the synthesis of annual public investment plans based on proposals from ministries, branches and localities in the process of implementing programs and projects under the operation according to the provisions of the law on public investment.
According to the content of the directive, the digital transformation process in recent times has revealed many challenges and shortcomings such as: leaders of some ministries, branches and localities have not considered digital transformation and digital economic development as key tasks; there are still some areas without national grid electricity, leading to difficulties in deploying digital infrastructure; The economic development scale of regions and areas across the country is not uniform, especially in localities in ethnic minority and mountainous areas where the rate of poor and near-poor households is still quite high, leading to low ownership of smart devices among people; the connection and sharing of data between state agencies is still limited, not creating much added value; the quality of online public services is still low; the risk of network information security loss still contains risks and challenges; there has not been appropriate investment in resources, especially in attracting human resources in information technology and network information security, etc.
