The channel was upgraded from the Economic and Urban Newspaper’s English electronic information page Hanoitimes. It provides visitors with continuously-updated information, a map of the entire city and its tourism sites, hotels and restaurants.

It is also expected to help correct untrue information and promote investment and international cooperation as well as connect Hanoi with international friends and overseas Vietnamese.

Speaking at the launch ceremony, Chairman of the municipal People’s Committee Nguyen The Thao said the debut of the channel is part of the city’s efforts to improve its State management efficiency.

He expressed hope that it will contribute to promoting images of the capital’s land and people as well as its history, culture and socio-economic achievements to the world.-VNA
