However, Vietnam's No.1 swimmer Nguyen Huy Hoang will not attend the event because he is in specialized training in Hungary to prepare for ASIAD 19 in Hangzhou (China) in September this year.

All the athletes have met the criteria to qualify for the world championships in Japan according to the regulations of the International Swimming Federation (FINA).
