Vietnam PM vows quick licensing for Musk's Starlink

HANOI (Reuters) - Vietnamese Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh said on Saturday he had directed authorities to quickly grant a license to Elon Musk's Starlink to provide satellite internet services in the country under a pilot scheme.

Chinh also told U.S. businesses in a meeting in Hanoi that the Southeast Asian nation was taking measures to rebalance its trade surplus with the United States, the government said on its website, amid threats of tariffs from President Donald Trump.
