The international media center is well equipped with the latest technology.

Located in the Cultural Friendship Palace at 91 Tran Hung Dao Street and equipped with the latest technology, the international media center will remain open 24 hours a day and is set to serve over 3,000 reporters during the course of the summit. A display featuring Vietnamese culture and several stalls promoting Vietnamese enterprises is on view at the center.

Nguyen Duc Chung, Chairman of Hanoi’s People’s Committee, says measures have been taken to ensure absolute safety for national leaders, foreign delegations, and diplomatic corps.

“To serve the second DPRK-USA Summit, we have closely worked with specialized teams from the Ministry of Public Security, the Ministry of Defense, and other agencies to provide the best possible services to the summit and the highest level of safety for the meeting,” said Mr. Chung.

Many streets in Hanoi, as well as public places and hotels where the foreign delegations will stay, have been repaired and decorated. 

Youth Union members have been tasked to provide communications to let everybody know that this is a rare opportunity to promote Vietnam and Hanoi.

The selection of Hanoi to host the second DPRK-USA Summit is just the latest proof that Vietnam is seen as a responsible contributor to world affairs. By ensuring security and safety for the summit, Hanoi will contribute to the meeting’s success and to Vietnam’s rising international status.
