All organisations and individuals in the Digital Transformation Network will have access to and use digital platforms and unified toolkits nation-wide to serve State management and law enforcement on digital transformation.

By 2030, the Digital Transformation Network will be completed, operate effectively, be closely linked and coordinate synchronously in implementing tasks and solutions of the national digital transformation.

All staff performing digital transformation tasks from central to local levels will be trained annually to improve their capacity to meet State management and law enforcement requirements in accordance with their job title and position standards.
