Mr. Hoang Cong Thanh, Vice Chairman of Son Tra District People's Committee, Da Nang City, spoke at the ceremony and praised Dong A University's accomplishment in education and new breakthroughs in public science activities. Dong A University's Science Journal was launched using cutting-edge technologies. The first stage in this collaboration is cooperation on the theme "Research on the migration of some varieties of bamboo in service of Tre Viet Thematic Cultural Park - Son Tra District" which Dong A University chaired and implemented by the selection committee. Cooperation on scientific and technical research between the two parties is also a prerequisite for future cooperation in other domains.
