The Tam Ky smart urban construction project was approved in April 2021 and is expected to finish by 2025. It is sponsored by the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) in Vietnam.

The project includes 7 components, including an overall strategy for smart cities in Quang Nam and a master plan for smart city development in Tam Ky, setting up the database of the Tam Ky urban area, developing a smart city data platform, smart urban pilot services, the construction and operation of a smart city operation centre, training and improving capacities, project management, and promotion.

According to experts from South Korea, the results from the infrastructure construction in Tam Ky show poor conditions for the exploitation of linkage and integration functions.

So it is necessary to plan and implement the project on building smart urban areas effectively and sustainably. The project focuses on five keys: traffic, safety, healthcare, travel, and industry.

Completion of the operation

The project on smart urban areas in Quang Nam has had some certain achievements after 3 years of implementation.
