At the meeting, Hien referred to the effort of Viet Nam in general and Can Tho city in particular in reducing net emissions to zero by 2050 as committed at the COP 26 for the UN Climate Change Conference. Can Tho is adopting strong and comprehensive measures to implement target programs to promote green growth, respond to climate change and develop sustainably.

Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Can Tho city Nguyen Thuc Hien presented a souvenir Consul General of the Netherlands in Ho Chi Minh city Daniel Stork.

Can Tho city hopes to receive the support of the Netherlands in implementing projects and programs related to green and sustainable development. Both sides can continue to strengthen cooperation to achieve the goal of reducing global greenhouse gas emissions through forums and multilateral cooperation mechanisms. According to Hien, sharing the similarities in low terrain characteristics compared to sea level, both the Netherlands and the Mekong Delta of Viet Nam are facing high risks of flooding and subsidence. Therefore, it is believed that through extensive cooperation in the fields of environment and climate change, both sides can open opportunities to prevent and adapt to rising sea levels and flooding in the coming time.

In education and training, Hien hoped that educational and training institutions of the Netherlands would strengthen their links with partners in Can Tho city to open undergraduate and postgraduate training programs, short-term and long-term training courses for civil servants and teachers at high schools, colleges and universities in the city.
