In a talk with Head of the Department of External Relations under the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba (CPC) Jose Ramon Balaguer, Nghia said that Da Nang city wants to study and share with Cuba experience in such sectors as construction, tourism management, education, healthcare, and high-tech agriculture.

He also highlighted the city’s socio-economic development in the past years as well as its orientation in the coming time.

Jose Ramon Balaguer, for his part, briefed the Vietnamese guests of the CPC’s activities during the process of updating the socio-economic model in the context of the world’s new challenges.

He affirmed the CPC’s determination to firmly protect national independence and sovereignty, as well as carry out the socio-economic update model towards an equal and democratic society.

During their stay in Cuba, the Da Nang Party Committee delegation laid wreath of flowers at the President Ho Chi Minh Monument in Havana, and visited many cultural and economic sites in the host nation./.
