Da Nang to Launch Vietnam-Japan Festival 2023

The four-day event is a collaboration between the municipal Department of Foreign Affairs and the Japanese Consulate General in Da Nang.

In his opening speech, Vice Chairman Ho Ky Minh of the municipal People’s Committee highlighted the ongoing development of cooperation between Da Nang and Japanese localities, which has become a prominent aspect of the extensive strategic partnership between the two countries.

Da Nang has established friendly and cooperative relations with four cities in Japan – Kawasaki, Sakai, Yokohama, and Kisarazu – as part of its cooperation with 20 Japanese localities.

According to Vice Chairman Minh, Japan has always been a leading partner for Da Nang, with 222 Japanese enterprises, representative offices, and projects operating in the city. These contribute significantly to Da Nang’s socio-economic development by means of technology transfer, human resources training, product diversification, and enhancement of competitiveness.

Minh emphasized the importance of the close ties between the people of Vietnam and Japan in fostering economic, cultural, and social cooperation, as well as people-to-people exchange.

The Vietnam – Japan Festival, inaugurated in 2014, has become a significant annual cultural event for Da Nang residents, Japanese inhabitants, and tourists living and working in the city.

This year’s festival showcases 80 booths featuring Vietnamese and Japanese cultures, traditional dishes, as well as providing information on education, study, tourism, and trade, according to Vice Chairman Minh.

Yamada Takio, the Japanese Ambassador to Vietnam, expressed his hope that the festival will allow Vietnamese people to experience Japanese culture and art, engage in cultural and sports exchanges, and appreciate the similarities between the two nations’ cultures. This foundation is vital for the development of their fruitful relationship, he added.

Who Is Anton Zeilinger – One Of The Three Nobel Winner Of Quantum Physics?

Image
Photo: Wikipedia Anton Zeilinger is a professor of physics at the University of Vienna and a Senior Scientist at the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information at the Austrian Academy of Sciences. His research group has demonstrated a phenomenon called quantum teleportation, which makes it possible to move a quantum state from one particle to one at a distance. For Anders Irbäck, Chair of the Nobel Committee for Physics, “It has become increasingly clear that a new kind of quantum technology is emerging. We can see that the laureates’ work with entangled states is of great importance, even beyond the fundamental questions about the interpretation of quantum mechanics“. Together with Anton Zeilinger, John Clauser and Alain Aspect were also awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics 2022 “for experiments with entangled photons, establishing the violation of Bell inequalities and pioneering quantum information science“.
