APEC theme park inaugurated in Vietnam's Da Nang

Minh and Vietnamese Minister of Industry and Trade Tran Tuan Anh as well as ministers and heads of delegations from the 21 APEC economies unveiled a stone-carved APEC 2017 logo, planted trees and enjoyed the artistic sculptures.
The piece from China, "A Common Vision of A Shared Future" made up of 21 colorful intertwined ribbons, is emblematic of unity, harmony and win-win cooperation among the APEC members. "This APEC Park is an effort to expand and deepen understanding of APEC, connecting people-to-people and advancing cultural exchange," Minh said at the ceremony.
He highly valued the support from APEC members, who contributed selected works of art showcasing the Asia-Pacific region's rich culture and highlighting the theme of APEC 2017 of "Creating New Dynamism, Fostering a Shared Future."
"Located by Han River, at the heart of the dynamic city of Da Nang, the APEC park is dedicated to you, your economies and your people. I hope it will be a symbol of APEC's innovation, vigor and spirit of cooperation, and one of the must-visit attraction for any traveller in Da Nang," Minh said.
APEC leaders and more than 2,000 trade officials, delegates and entrepreneurs are gathering in the central Vietnamese port city for the annual APEC Economic Leaders' Week.
Established in 1989, the 21-member APEC is Pacific Rim's premier economic forum aimed at supporting sustainable economic growth and prosperity in the Asia-Pacific.
