Carta del Alcalde Stimpson de Mobile, Ala.
|
Letter from Mobile , Ala. Mayer Stimpson Last week, the City of Mobile led a delegation to our sister city in Havana , Cuba . The purpose of the trip was to establish relationships with Cuban authorities and gain an understanding of the culture regarding education, the arts and trade. While we were there, we were able to visit the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Investment, Ministry of Tourism, Ministry of Culture, University of Havana , the Cuban Chamber of Commerce, the Economic Development Zone of Mariel and the Mayor of Cuba, Marta Hernandez Romero. I left Havana with a sense of optimism about the future of Cuba . Mobile is in a unique position to take advantage of these cultural and educational exchanges due to our strategic location for future trade opportunities and our enduring Sister City relationship. |
