The German Consulate General in Ho Chi Minh City unveiled at a press conference on September 30 a wide array of activities on the agenda in celebration of the 40th anniversary of Vietnam-Germany diplomatic relations.

From now until December 2015, an Oktoberfest beer festival, German/Bavarian band and orchestra concerts, and ballet performances are just a few of the many planned events for HCMC and the surrounding area.

In 2015, the two sides will co-organize exhibitions on lacquer paintings, electronic music performances and German Film Festival in HCMC.
 


German Consul General in HCMC Hans – Dieter Stell also said it was his distinct pleasure to announce a US$80 million 25-storey German House will soon kick off construction.

Other joint projects resulting from the strategic partnership between the two countries that will get off the ground by 2016 include a metro project and a Vietnam-Germany University expansion project in Binh Duong, Stell noted.

Vietnam-German diplomatic relations were established on September 23, 1975. 

There are now 300 German firms operating in southern Vietnam and the two-way trade volume between Vietnam and Germany has climbed to over 7.4 billion euros, he added.
