Within the framework of the opening session, MISA Standing Deputy General Director Le Hong Quang shared about the importance and benefits of the data connection and communication between enterprises and state agencies. From there, it is presented to export and connect and exploit data to bring practical value to the State, people and businesses.
Building a database is a shared responsibility of the State and enterprises
Accordingly, in fact, when it comes to building national databases, the main responsibility belongs to ministries and branches in focusing on building data centers and databases. . However, the most important part of a national database is the data itself. These data are partly managed by state agencies and also actively managed by organizations and businesses.
Standing Deputy General Director of MISA Le Hong Quang shared about data connection and communication between state agencies and businesses
To get the most complete data, it is necessary to have the contribution of all 3 parties including: database builder, connection intermediary and data contributor. At the same time, all 3 of these units must be connected to each other.
For entities participating in data connection and contribution, diversity is also required to be able to add to the National Database the data gathered from many fields, organizations and units to meet the needs of exploitation. , effectively serving the comprehensive digital transformation process in all 3 pillars: Digital Government, Digital Economy and Digital Society.
Data is only really valuable when it is mined
Analyzing the value of the national database, Mr. Le Hong Quang emphasized that data is only really valuable when both the Government, people and businesses can exploit and benefit from the data. whether that. In particular, if the data is opened for enterprises to exploit, it will bring many useful services to the people and to the State agencies.
For example, in the insurance sector, if there is a national database on traffic, insurance enterprises are allowed to access and access to check the history of the vehicle and whether the vehicle owner often accident or not so that the appropriate insurance premium can be calculated.
Or for example, in the banking sector, with unsecured loans, if there is no financial database, all borrowers have equal opportunities and risks. However, if there is a financial database and the bank is allowed to access it, the bank will easily assess the loan history, financial transparency, and potential of each borrower, thereby evaluating who should lend, approve loans faster, more suitable limit, reduce the risk ratio when it is possible to filter out those with bad debt history. For borrowers, the financial database is the basis to demonstrate financial transparency, reduce paperwork, financial reporting and easily get the right loan from the bank quickly. more quickly.
The value of the database has been valued, built and put into operation by many ministries and sectors, allowing businesses to connect and exploit to digitally transform production and business activities. and operate.
Typically, the General Department of Taxation allows e-invoice providers to connect to provide services of connecting, receiving, transmitting and storing e-invoice data. The Ministry of Education and Training has also put into operation the education sector database to provide a database and information system for management in the industry. However, besides that, there are still many unresolved connection needs of enterprises, some databases are exclusively connected, causing difficulties for service providers as well as making databases less rich and diverse.
Proposing to connect, exploit and share the national database between the State and enterprises
To contribute to improving this situation, MISA proposes to the Government, ministries, departments and branches to allow technology enterprises to be connected to the national database on the basis of ensuring the criteria announced by the management agency, at the same time allowing allows businesses and people to contribute and exploit data to effectively carry out production, business, operation, administrative procedures and other areas around life. In addition, it is necessary to avoid monopolization of connection to ensure the richness of the national database and promote the maximum value for State agencies, people and businesses. 
As an intermediary to help individuals and organizations contribute data to the national database, MISA has developed a number of digital platforms to effectively support data connection between state agencies and Organizations and enterprises such as: MISA staff management platform QLCB accompanies the Department of Home Affairs - Binh Thuan Province to complete the updating of personnel records on the National Database.
With nearly 30 years of experience in the field of information technology, MISA is willing to accompany and join hands with State agencies, organizations, businesses and people in building and exploiting a database system to serve practical for digital conversion. Properly built and exploited data will really be a valuable resource, a "gold mine" creating the impetus for the development of a powerful and prosperous Vietnam.
