Speaking at the meeting, Mr. Tran Chi Cuong introduced the development potential of Da Nang city. Da Nang is currently identified as the growth nucleus of the Central Key Economic Zone of Vietnam. The main industrial products of Da Nang are seafood, textiles, footwear, mechanics, construction materials, and handicrafts. In particular, the city focuses on developing the information technology industry to become one of the key economic sectors. The city's economic structure is oriented towards "Services - Industry - Agriculture".

In recent times, the city has established friendly and cooperative relations with the Nord - Pas de Calais Region (France). During 14 years of cooperation, many practical projects in Da Nang have been sponsored by the Nord - Pas de Calais Regional Council and implemented effectively with a total budget of up to 10 billion VND. Notable projects include enhancing the value of the Cham Museum, building the French Club headquarters, the Microcredit project, the Rong Dam Maintenance project, etc.

Mr. Tran Chi Cuong hopes that in the coming time, the Consulate General will act as a bridge to help Da Nang expand its cooperative relations with French partners; promote and mobilize French investors to survey the investment environment and seek business opportunities in Da Nang. The city will support and create all conditions for French enterprises and investors to invest, live and work in the locality. Currently, the city has many educational institutions teaching French in schools to encourage French investors to invest in the education and training sector.

He also hopes that Da Nang city and France will have more cultural exchange activities, introducing French culture and people to Da Nang city as well as helping to introduce Vietnamese culture and people in general and Da Nang in particular to the French people.

She suggested that, to attract investors from France, the city government should support and create conditions for French citizens to work and stay in the locality; continue to expand educational training activities according to the European educational model so that when French families come, they can stay, work and study here. This will also create human resources to promote cooperation for both sides.
