Dumb question, but my understanding was that ipv6 is not backwards compatible with ipv4. So all devices within Vietnam will be able to talk to each other, but how will they talk to the outside world?

There are ways to translate IPv6 to IPv4 so users can still access legacy sites.

That's gonna be a big-ass NAT.
