Representatives from 13 metropolises have registered to attend the November 18–19 Asian Network of Major Cities conference in Hanoi.

According to a November 12 press briefing, the city delegates will focus discussions on crisis management, environmental  response, industrial development, and trade and tourism promotion.

Hanoi joined the Asian Network of Major Cities in 2001, immediately involving itself in investment promotion and Asian infectious disease control initiatives.

This is the second time Hanoi will host the conference, aiming to strengthen cooperation between the Vietnamese capital and other Asian cities.

Hanoi External Affairs Department Deputy Head Vu Dang Dinh outlined the conference’s planned consideration of issues in urban planning, energy efficiency, and agricultural and industrial development.

The conference also includes seminars on trade, investment, and tourism promotion; signing ceremonies for cooperation agreements; music and dance performances; and an exhibition showcasing the beauty of Asian cities.
