Can Tho (VNA) – An expert delegation from the German Agency for International Cooperation (GIZ) has visited the Mekong Delta city of Can Tho to seek investment opportunities in the local traffic infrastructure system.

During a working session with the local People’s Committee on February 22 Roland Hass from the delegation said the fact-finding mission aims to collect relevant information for an investment in the sustainable development of the urban traffic system in the core as well as the suburban areas of the city.

The delegation also discussed with local authorities the planning and development of the traffic network and its relevant legal framework, particularly in Ninh Kieu district.

A 3.8 million USD project on sustainable development of the Can Tho urban traffic system is expected to be carried out late this year. It comprises the components of technology transfer, technical assistance and human resources training.

Vice Chairman of the municipal People’s Committee Dao Anh Dung welcomed the investment from Germany in the city.

He attached the significant contribution of the German project to listing Can Tho as one of the key cities in the Southeast Asian region.-VNA
