Over the past three years, Hanoi has changed its traditional garbage collection and treatment process, towards building waste-to-power plants instead of landfills, he said, adding that he hoped France will actively partner with the capital city in these fields.
Nefgre, for his part, said the PCF plays a role in promoting ties between the French government and other countries, as well as seeking common development orientations.
He mentioned cooperation opportunities in environmental hygiene, waste collection and treatment, clean water supply in Hanoi, and discussed the possibility to hold the ATP professional tennis tournament.
The PCF official expressed his wish to explore Hanoi’s demand for environmental pollution treatment.
According to him, French firms are interested in renewing Hanoi’s railway station so he wished that the municipal authorities would create favourable conditions to carry out projects in the field.
