With 10km of parade and marching procession passing through, Hanoi Youth Union presided over the reception and distribution work to serve delegates at 67 locations. The warehouse was arranged to create the most favorable conditions for distribution work...

Mr. Nguyen Anh Tuan, General Director of Hanoi Electricity Corporation, said that the logistics of power supply were reviewed and specific plans were developed for each event and each activity location, and rehearsals were also organized. In particular, three key areas including Ba Dinh Square, the exhibition area and locations directed by the Central Government were considered the most important locations.

At Ba Dinh Square, the power supply system is 100% guaranteed by the grid, generators and UPS; the final items have been installed. The exhibition area has been connected to the power source of the Technical Center, ensuring power supply for the LED lighting system of Hanoi Television. Fireworks display points at 5 locations have also been prepared. On 17 streets serving the event, there has been sufficient power supply on each route.

After two training sessions, it was found that people still climbed trees and vehicles to monitor. The unit learned from experience and arranged 300 people to be on duty along the streets to guide, ensure safety, and avoid accidents. Regarding the 5 newly announced tents, the electricity company immediately completed supplying electricity to the locations, with a total of 11 tents to be guaranteed electricity.

A representative of the Capital Command said that with the establishment of 6 water and essential goods distribution points, the Capital Command, the City Youth Union and the Department of Industry and Trade have coordinated to ensure personnel and goods for the preliminary and final rehearsal days as well as the official holidays.

In addition, the arrangement of tents to serve people to avoid rain and sun was proactively reported by the Capital Command, agreed and implemented by the city. These locations attracted a large number of people, created favorable conditions and were enthusiastically welcomed by the people.

However, in reality, there are disputes over seating, and at the same time, there is a great need for public sanitation and waste disposal. The Command proposes to arrange more mobile toilets and trash cans at crowded places; activate all water and essential supply points, bringing the total number to 75 points and specify the time and responsibilities of each department, ensuring close coordination and avoiding overlap.

A representative of the Hanoi Transport Corporation said that they have prepared 80 tourist vehicles to transport the delegations as assigned and have sent documents to 65 related departments, branches and units. The unit has built an operating route from the expected pick-up points to the Ba Dinh Square area and vice versa.

Regarding promotion, trade and tourism, the Corporation is working with the Department of Tourism to agree on the number of delegates who need to be picked up from Noi Bai airport to the hotel, from the hotel to Ba Dinh Square and vice versa.

It is expected that on September 2, about 6,600 delegates from 33 provinces and cities nationwide will attend the event. A80 will be assigned to the Corporation for transportation (it is expected that 180 - 200 more vehicles will need to be mobilized).
