For this project I did research on Tokyo, whilst my partner who was great to work with did his research on Vietnam. I learned some interesting facts about both cities and how technology has impacted both cities in different ways. Overall, Tokyo is more advanced in technology and has a lesser digital divide compared to Vietnam in my opinion.
Tokyo shows what a technologically advanced society should look like. Its residents enjoy fast internet, high innovations, and advanced public services. However, there is subtle digital divide due to age as seniors would struggle to keep up with new technology and economic differences. On the other hand, whilst Vietnam has shown rapid technological growth in recent years in the major cities, rural areas still experience significant digital divide due to income disparities and poor infrastructure. Overall, Tokyo is still ways ahead of Vietnam when it comes to technology integration in everyday life.
