Communications and English courses have been organised for public servants, while the “Da Nang smile” campaign has been launched to promote civilised lifestyle among residents in a bid to make each of them a cultural ambassador of the city.
Security preparations, including the prevention of fires and diseases, are underway.
Last year, the Government allocated 400 billion VND (17.9 million USD) from the central government budget to support Da Nang’s preparations to host the 2017 APEC Summit.
During the week spanning from November 6 to 11, heads of state and CEOs from 21 APEC member economies will gather at the city for the key event of the APEC Year 2017.
