Vietnam considers limiting SIM card access, suggests 18 per person is enough

Vietnam considers limiting SIM card access, suggests 18 per person is enough

How many SIM cards do you have in your stash. If your answer is less than three per operator — of every network provider — then you may have trouble sympathizing with the apparent plight of some Vietnamese. Proposed legislation from the Ministry of Information and Commerce would effectively regulate each citizen to a maximum of three SIMs per carrier (of which there are six), leading to a theoretical limit of 18 SIM cards per individual. The draft law is intended to curb unauthorized distribution in that nation, where SIM cards with student discounts and the like are re-sold without carrier knowledge.
