   Vietnam is creating new legend: "Connecting East Africa"   
      
   "In this one-off special, he joins forces with acclaimed engineer and   
   inventor, Dr Jordan Nguyen, as he reveals how East Africa is undergoing a   
   digital revolution, and how Tanzania is about to see its high-speed internet   
   access transform overnight.   
      
   In 2018, the number of people accessing the internet pushed past 4 billion.   
   People, businesses, and devices have moved into a permanent state of   
   hyper-connectivity. The way we go online to trade, work, travel, even   
   socialise, has given rise to the digital economy - a digital economy that's   
   worth over 3 trillion US dollars.   
      
   Southeast Asia is now the world's third largest region for internet users -   
   with more people online than the entire population of the US. And in Vietnam,   
   more than half the country's population is online - allowing the former   
   war-torn country to flourish in the new, digital economy. In turn, Vietnam has   
   become an economic role model to many developing nations around the world.   
      
   In East Africa, getting online is still largely out of reach to most people,   
   and this plays a major role in stagnating regional economic development.   
      
   However, the tide is turning.   
      
   In Tanzania, a team of highly skilled engineers have traveled over 6000 miles   
   from Vietnam, to take the lead in building a state of the art, fibre-optic   
   telecommunications network. When complete, it could help revolutionise the   
   economy of one of the poorest countries on earth.   
      
   Futurist Australian-Vietnamese Dr Jordan Nguyen pulls back the curtain on how   
   Vietnam is redefining the digital landscape across one of the poorest regions   
   of the world, one internet user at a time. This is Vietnam: Connecting East   
   Africa.   
   ...."   
      
   What is new?
