Hanoi keen to learn from Fukuoka’s urban development experience

Mentioning that the capital is currently in the process of urban planning with numerous significant plans for further economic and environmentally-friendly smart urban development, Thanh hopes to receive co-operation and assistance from international friends, including Japan and the city of Fukuoka.

The official outlined Hanoi’s desires to learn from Fukuoka’s valuable experiences in urban development, especially regarding public transportation infrastructure, the transition to clean energy for buses, digital traffic management, and community healthcare.

Expansion plans for Hanoi’s development space, including new urban areas, the Belt Road No. 4 project, and the Hoa Lac high-tech zone, all open up great potential to build further ties with Japanese investors, he said.

Deputy Mayor of Fukuoka, Eiichi Nakamura, affirmed that Fukuoka is ready to share information and experiences with Hanoi.
Moving forward to November, the Vietnamese capital is set to send a working delegation to Fukuoka.
