HCMC will sign a cooperation deal with Danang City, Quang Nam, Thua Thien-Hue and Quang Ngai provinces to develop tourism products, attract investments and engage these provinces in this year’s travel stimulus program.
According to Nguyen Viet Anh, head of the Travel Division under the HCMC Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the deal will be signed late next month in Quang Ngai Province in a survey trip of HCMC-based enterprises. Except for Quang Ngai Province, the other localities have received a large number of tourists taken there by travel firms in HCMC.
“HCMC’s advantage is that it is a major transit hub for tourists and has many tour operators while other provinces have tourist attractions. Therefore, our cooperation aims to help enterprises create more products to attract tourists,” Anh said.
The tourism promotion is one of the main content of the cooperation. The provinces and cities will join travel events and promotion activities of each other, and HCMC will offer assistance to the provinces in running tourism road shows and organize familiarization trips for travel and press groups to the central region.
Besides, the provincial tourism associations will discuss and offer discounts to domestic tourists. “We hope to have a common voice to offer the best price to tourists,” Anh said.
