Danang City is one of the five biggest cities directly managed by the Vietnamese Government. The city is situated at the centre of Vietnam with a natural land area of 1,256km2 and a population of 860,900 people. With the advantages of being an important communications hub of the central region and Vietnam, Danang City has an international airport, deep water seaports and north-south land routes and railways which are completely and conveniently developed.

The city has abundant human resources with a highly skilled, hardworking workforce accounting for 58% of the total population. These factors have been crucial in making Danang one of the main socio-economic engines of the central region of Vietnam.

Danang is the gateway to the Pacific Ocean of the East West Economic Corridor, connecting the virtually untapped hinterlands of Laos, Northeast Thailand, Myanmar and Central Vietnam. It is strategically well-placed to ensure favourable conditions for the development of foreign economic relations, giving impetus to its efforts to be the central hub of the Key Economic Zone of Central Vietnam.
