During his reception last Friday for Moroccan Ambassador to Viet Nam Azzeddine Farhane, Da Nang People’s Committee Chairman Huynh Duc Tho said “Da Nang is focusing on promoting the development of its foreign economic relations, along with hi-tech and logistics industries.  Importance is being attached to developing beach tourism services, as well as launching new and special tours to boost mutual cooperation in tourism between Da Nang, Thua Thien-Hue Province and Quang Nam Province”.

The host noted that the bilateral cooperation between Da Nang and localities in Morocco, and other African countries as a whole, is still modest.  He, therefore, hoped that the Moroccan diplomat would assist the city to establish bilateral cooperative relations with his country in aspects in which both localities take a keen interest.

In reply, the Ambassador remarked “Da Nang and the world famous tourism city of Tangier, on the northern side of Morocco, share many similarities in geographical position, tourism services, and marine economic development.”

He vowed to do his utmost to promote the establishment of bilateral cooperative relations between Da Nang and Tangier soon in such aspects as tourism and maritime development.   In addition, he affirmed that he would assist the city leaders to visit Tangier as soon as possible.
