Can Tho seeks cooperation with French partners

During the trip, the delegation had a working session with the Permanent Secretary of the International Association of Francophone Mayors (AIMF), Pierre Baillet, to discuss the progress of joint projects in providing equipment for schools, women’s capacity enhancement and environmental hygiene.

The delegation also met with experts of the French Development Agency (AFD) to seek investment for Can Tho’s priority projects in health care, information technology and agriculture.
