An international exhibition on water supply and sewerage (Vietwater 2019) is slated to be held at the International Exhibition Centre in Ha Noi from June 24-26.

The exhibition was announced at a press conference held in the capital city late last week by the Viet Nam Water Supply and Sewerage Association (VWSA).

The event will have the participation of more than 200 exhibitors from 30 nations and territories such as Japan, South Korea, Thailand and China. It will introduce new waste treatment technology with the hope of bringing more high-tech equipment from other countries to customers.

Nguyen Hong Tien, Vice President of VWSA, described water management as an urgent issue in urban areas.

He said rapid economic growth required coherent development of the scale and quality of the wastewater treatment system. — VNS
