Hanoi will continue consolidating and expanding its friendship and cooperation with capitals and localities of other countries, while participating more actively in international urban mechanisms and forums, stepping up economic diplomacy to serve sustainable development, and attracting resources from outside to improve the capital’s building and development.
Meanwhile, Secretary of Da Nang city’s Party Committee Nguyen Van Quang said that in the time ahead, the central city will focus on enhancing Party diplomacy and studying new policies on external affairs based on the world situation, and orientations and instructions of the Party.
Attention will be paid to effectively implementing bilateral and multilateral cooperation programs, particularly the implementation of the city’s international agreements with other localities and international organizations in trade, investment, tourism, start-ups, and human resources training, so as to better post-pandemic economic recovery, Quang stressed.
Da Nang will maintain close coordination with ministries and sectors to carry out suitable solutions to ensure security and sovereignty over sea and islands, and develop sea-based economy, he added.
