AT Kearney’s research showed that Vietnam remained in the global top ten for software outsourcing despite a decline in some key indicators.

Nguyen Trong Duong, head of the Information Technology (IT) Department under the Ministry of Information and Communications, said that important indicators like e-government and internet development have improved in 2012.

AT Kearney said Vietnam rose two notches to 8^th from 10^th place in 2009 but 11 notches from 2007.

The ranking list was based on consideration of the following criteria in 50 countries: services and IT support, customer service and IT application support. The three major standards were financial attractiveness, human resources and business environment. Vietnam took the lead in the financial index.
