For the HHI calculation, the article uses revenue market share data. For estimation of price elasticity of demand, the article uses a regression model with aggregate data of the whole market. The estimation results show high HHI, suggesting high concentration of the Vietnam mobile market which can harm the competition in the market. The high estimated price elasticity of demand indicates that price is actually powerful tool of competition and it is likely difficult for a single company to raise the price in the market without facing a decrease in its services demand. This gives implications for regulatory bodies for regulation options applied in the market. Keywords: Market concentration, Price elasticity of demand, Competition, Telecommunications market, Mobile telecommunications market. 1. Introduction * and if so what the appropriate form of regulations is. Many studies put effort to find out the methods to evaluate the degree of market competition in the telecommunications sector. Some overview studies include [2-5]. Although the studies are different in their focus, it may be possible to point out three sequential steps suggested by researchers to determine the degree of competition and non-competitive behavior of firms in the telecommunications market. Step 1: Define the market. Markets .
