Israel will help Ho Chi Minh City train experts and officials in water management along with sharing its experience, advanced technologies and solutions in the field.
A memorandum of understanding to this effect between the municipal people’s committee and the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labour of Israel was signed in Ho Chi Minh City on October 19.
Cooperation in water management will also include the organization of conferences, exhibitions, training courses and seminars in both HCM City – Vietnam’s biggest economic hub – and Israel .
Fact-finding trips in Israel will be organised for HCM City officials and experts working in the water sector, and business cooperation will be encouraged.
At the following reception for Israeli officials, Standing Deputy Chairman of the municipal people’s committee Nguyen Thanh Tai said the city had paid due attention to water management as it was one of the most fundamental issues.
Supplying sufficient water for 10 million people’s daily use and production was not only a matter of life but also an issue of security in the current context of global climate change, Tai said.
“Ho Chi Minh City is very interested in the successes, know-how, and experiences Israel has gained in managing its water resources effectively,” Tai said, admitting that his city was facing a shortage of clean water and infrastructural and technological facilities./.
