Microsoft, Vietnam Sign Anti-Piracy Agreement
5 Comments
Microsoft said Monday that it had signed an agreement with the Vietnamese government that would require its government offices ensure they are running genuine copies of the Redmond company's software. The country has one of the highest rates of piracy, according to recent studies. The partnership came the same day as another with the state-run Vietindebank banking chain.
Microsoft has put a lot of focus on Vietnam in recent months, with Bill Gates recently visiting the country to address the piracy issue with government leaders. His visit resulted in the signing of an anti-piracy agreement with Vietnam's Finance Ministry.
