By Anh Kiet 13:36, 2016/12/14

At the meeting, Chairman Nguyen Duc Chung briefed the guests on the “National Exhibition and Fair Centre” project and hoped they would help Hanoi design the centre’s main building, advise on the content of exhibitions and train human resources for the centre. Chung said Hanoi will make efforts to expand the scale and quality of its booth at the Frankfurt Book Fair and wished to get advice from the organising board to make Hanoi’s booth more appealing.

Claudia Kaiser praised Hanoi’s development in tourism and culture, adding that she was impressed with Hanoi’s booth at the Frankfurt Book Fair this year. She invited Chung to attend the event in 2017 and said that President of the Frankfurt Book Fair Juergen Boos plans to visit Hanoi from February 28 to March 3 to discuss cooperation.

On the National Exhibition and Fair Centre project, Claudia Kaiser affirmed Germany is willing to coordinate with ministries and relevant agencies to implement the project, creating a landmark for the city.

The construction of a new national exhibition and fair centre began in Hanoi’s Dong Anh district on October 8. The centre, which replaces the Giang Vo exhibition and fair centre in the downtown district of Ba Dinh, is expected to be the largest of its kind in Asia.

Covering over 90ha in Co Loa, Mai Lam and Dong Hoi communes, it will include inside and outside exhibition areas, a trade promotion centre, a conference centre and other support areas. Its construction is scheduled to complete in the fourth quarter of 2018. As one of the 10 key projects in the capital region planning, the centre will act as a driving force for the development of provinces north of the Red River.
