Build nuclear center in Hanoi to

The Nuclear Science and Technology Center will support technology and science technology for the implementation of nuclear projects in general, and nuclear power plants in particular; absorb and master nuclear technology transferred to Vietnam (reactor, fuel, waste treatment, radioactive).

Wondering where to choose in Hanoi

According to the Director of the Atomic Energy Institute, Mr. Vuong Huu Tan, currently on the center of the center is in the research and proposal. All work is at the starting level.

In the three locations of Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Da Lat, at most meetings and conferences, scientists put forward a viewpoint that should be centered near Hanoi. According to scientists, this position will meet the conditions, especially to utilize the available human resources at the Vietnam Atomic Energy Institute.

Prof. V. Nguyen Van Hieu (Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology) supports: ' Building near Hanoi to attract human resources with good professional qualifications, in fact very few people go away, and go to inadequate places. Lawsuit facilities to work. Not only the Soviet Union, but also in France and many large countries in the world, they built a Research Institute or Center right in the Capital and were very successful . '

Therefore, Vietnamese scientists said that the Nuclear Science and Technology Center is as close to Hanoi as possible, at least in the Hoa Lac High Tech Park, or near the Hanoi National University area, which is favorable for long-term development. long.

' However, the most difficult problem is still the location, where good for the material and hydrological conditions, how to effectively exploit existing human resources? - Mr. Tan wondered.

Does not affect people's lives

In terms of safety, managers and scientists affirmed that building centers in Hanoi did not affect people's lives.

Professor Nguyen Van Hieu said: ' We have seen many lessons in countries around the world, typically the Soviet Union, they have been wrong when building a Nuclear Research Institute more than 100km away from Moscow, then they decided to build an Atomic Institute right in the Moscow center, investing in six reactors that still did not affect people . '

Cao Chi also said that building a center in a big city does not affect people's lives. This is a research and training center, so there are no radioactive substances causing consequences.

' In fact, in Vietnam, the Dalat kiln in the middle of Da Lat has not seen any impact, this furnace is still operating. The Center for Nuclear Science and Technology will study in many different directions, so the center in Da Lat will be very limited. So don't leave the center in Dalat. Most importantly, there are people who exploit the most effectively, otherwise they will be wasted, "said Mr. Tan.

Expected, in 2011 the project will be submitted to the Prime Minister.
