Sample Answer:
The bar chart delineates how the internet
users in Vietnam developed from the
beginning of 2003 to the second quarter of
2012 according to the data provided by the
Vietnam Internet Network InformationCenter. As is obvious, the internet
subscribers in Vietnam increased steadily
throughout the period.
According to the diagram, 3.1 million
Vietnamese used the internet in 2003
which more than doubled in just 1 year.
After another year, total internet users in
Vietnam exceeded 10 million and in 2006
another 4 million new users emerged.
During 2006 and 2008, the number of such
netizens (people who are connected to the
internet) doubled, accounting somewhat
21 million total users. It is worth noticing
that the number of new internet
subscribers kept on increasing in Vietnam
throughout the period and in 2011, their
number went as high as 30 million, ten
times higher than that of 2003. During the
second quarter of 2012, the Vietnameseinternet subscribers reached a record high,
31.2 million with 0.6 million new users in
just six months.
