The “Vietnam Kizuna Ekiden 2018 - Run for Traffic Safety”, held by the Ministry of Public Security in collaboration with Japanese’s Mainichi Newspaper, will take place in Hanoi on November 18. The event is expected to attract some 1.200 Vietnamese and Japanese people, most of whom are officers from the two countries’ law enforcement agencies.
