Addressing the opening ceremony, Deputy General Director of the Vietnam Environment Administration Nguyen Hung Thinh said that as Vietnam is facing more complicated environment pollution and cornerns, the Party and State have paid close attention to environmental issues, which can be seen through significant guidelines and policies on boosting the environmental industry and promoting environmentally friendly production and consumption.

He noted with pleasure that the exhibition has the participation of up to 140 organisations and enterprises at home and abroad, which manifests itself so that energy technology has drawn increasing attention from the business community and society as a whole.

It is an encouraging sign for Vietnam to continue making efforts to protect the environment despite today’s increasing challenges.
