In the Netherlands, when a child is born in a hospital, the medical staff there are responsible for instructing the baby's father and mother to complete the procedures for "digital citizenship". 

According to them, to get success in digital transformation, the responsibility is "split", and then clearly divided to each individual in society.

Concluding the meeting, on behalf of the Government's Project 06 delegation, Deputy Minister Nguyen Duy Ngoc thanked the representative of the Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations and experts on digital transformation for their sharing of experiences. 

He expressed delight at visiting and working with the National Office for Identity Data, Logius Room, Digital Society Department of the Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations of the Netherlands.
