Vietnam to open National Exhibition and Convention Centre

Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh on May 19 visited the construction site to check on progress.

The facility has been classed as a key national project. Started on August 30, 2024, the project is close to completion and will be inaugurated on the 80th anniversary of National Day.

Covering 90 hectares, it is in the world's top 10 in terms of total area as well as exhibition area. The centre is located at the northeast gateway of Hanoi, close to important traffic arteries.

The government leader appreciated the efforts of ministries, agencies, Hanoi's authorities, and Vingroup for accelerating the construction, so the opening ceremony can be held on August 19.

The prime minister agreed to issue special policies for the project. "If necessary, foreign consultants with capacity and qualifications in organising major events can be hired. Vietnam also needs to have a team to get technology, knowledge, experience from abroad."

More than 100 businesses from 18 countries and territories have joined the exhibition Mining & Construction Vietnam 2022, taking place October 4-6, 2022, to seek trading opportunities and discuss issues in sustainable development in mining and mineral recovery.

Nam Cau Kien Industrial Park recently received a host of awards at the International Exhibition of Science and Technology Innovation held in Seoul, South Korea on November 15.

An international exhibition dedicated for waste treatment recycling and sustainability sectors is being organized from November 22 to 24 in the southern province of Binh Duong.
