It is also interesting that yet another government is prepared to increase its reliance on American big tech.

I do not know whether Vietnam has any pretence of digital sovereignty, but many countries that do are doing this like this to actively move away from it.

Lots of American big tech is actually developed in Israel - like Microsoft Azure's cloud services. Israel also has a history of getting caught selling American technical secrets to countries like China. Almost every major VPN is owned and operated by an Israeli company.
