As far as smart city construction is concerned, the construction and refinement of infrastructure are significant factors along with human resource, technology, and knowledge. Telecommunication infrastructure emerges as the major factor for telecommunication and information technology application.

Simon Van Der Burg, the General Consul of Holland in Ho Chi Minh City: Telecommunication Infrastructure is the significant factor to operate a smart city
Cooperation advancement has been established between Binh Duong and Eindhoven including senior visits of the localities. Enterprise representatives of both sides have carried out cooperation and investments. The development of infrastructure and telecommunication in Binh Duong Province shall speed up construction of smart city.
Binh Duong Province has the best starting point to construct a smart city. This is not unrealistic but based on foundation of Binh Duong Province as a locality of high economic growth nation wide with major investments into telecommunication infrastructure from foreign groups. Therefore, the construction of a smart city out of Binh Duong Province based on Internet of Things (IoT) is favorable and reasonable.
Nguyen Thanh Khiet, the Deputy General Director of Vietnam Technology & Telecommunication JSC (VNTT): We step by step meet the requirements of launching a smart city
Many nations in the world have apply IoT into their construction of smart cities. On applying IoT, telecommunication infrastructure holds a significant role in storing and transmitting information.
To service provincial socio-economic development, VNTT has constructed the most modern infrastructure including eDatacenter as one of the 4 major data centers in the nation. The Project of Binh Duong smart city construction shall be offered by the company with applications of VPN Bonding, NOC-SOC, eDatacenter services such as web hosting and mail hosting, etc. under TIA-942/Tiger 3 standards.
Professor, Doctor Sukanya Krishnamurthy of Einhoven Technology University: To construct smart traffic system
Smart traffic system must be equipped with technological applications of censoring, controlling, informing, and telecommunicating to control and manage the traffic system including the launching of IoT applications in traffic management. The smart traffic controlling model includes the controlling systems of traffic lights, surveillance cameras, traffic flow counters, electronic information bulletins, breaching treatment, managing and operating public passenger transportation, monitoring vehicle weight, automatic tolling, smart traffic controlling system.
In fact, smart traffic system can eventually create ‘green boulevards’, i.e. the automation application to traffic lights as the resolution to maintain thorough flow of traffic without jamming.
Traffic participants can refer to notification of controlling centers on traffic incurrence.
