Telecommunications Company and the exclusive online global domain name
registrar for the Country of Vietnam ("the Company" or "Dot VN"),

Network Information Center ("VNNIC") for the successful re-launch and
wide spread adoption of the Vietnamese Native Language Domain Names.
The award was presented to HMI at the annual year-end conference held
