Da Nang, November 5 (VNA) – People in the central coastal city of Da Nang are proud of being the host of the APEC 2017 Economic Leaders’ Week, slated for November 6-11.
“I am very proud when Da Nang is hosting the APEC 2017 Economic Leaders’ Week and will try my best to contribute to the success of the event”. Huynh Thi Hong Van, a fourth year student from Da Nang’s Duy Tan University said.
Van, a volunteer at the Da Nang international airport, told a Vietnam News Agency reporter on November 5 that her duty is arranging transport vehicles for APEC delegates.
“I attended training classes organised by the municipal External Affairs Relations in order to have the best knowledge on what to do when the delegates arrive,” Van said.
