The cooperative programme will be implemented during the 2020-2025 period. Accordingly, KOICA will support Thua Thien Hue to build a smart urban area for cultural and tourism infrastructure. In Da Nang, it is a smart center for  natural disaster control. Smart urban infrastructure services and its administrative database systems will be built in Tam Ky city.
