A scientific seminar was held in Da Nang city on July 9 to discuss the planning and management of construction and improvements to socio-economic conditions in the central coastal provinces.The event was attended by representatives from relevant agencies in the central highlands provinces and international consultants.
The coastal central province have great potential for tourism with their many beautiful beaches such as Sam Son, Cua Tung, Lang Co, Da Nang, Hoi An and Nha Trang. However, the construction of hotels, tourist sites and golf courses near the beaches is likely to have a negative impact on the environment.

This will make great contribute to ensuring sustainable tourism development and improve the socio-economic environment in the region.The event was co-organised by the Vietnam Institute of Architecture, Urban and Rural Planning and the Ministry of Construction.
