The COVID-19 pandemic has substantially affected
the socio-economic situation of Vietnam over the last two years. On October 18,
the People’s Committee of Hoa Binh announced that the province is at Pandemic
Level No. 1, which means low risk. This is a favourable condition for the
province to recover socio-economic activities, especially tourism.
Themed "Visit Hoa Binh - safe, friendly and
attractive destination”, the conference aimed to advertise the province as a
destination with quality tourism products able to meet travel demand of
Vietnamese people and foreigners living in the country, helping to gradually
reopen to international visitors.
At the event, travel stimulus packages were
announced by local businesses, including the Dinh Nhuan Trading JSC, Da Bac
Community-based Tourism JSC, Hoa Binh Tourism JSC, Mai Chau Hideway Resort,
Heritage Park of Vietnamese Scientists, Serena Resort Kim Boi, and V-Resort Kim
Boi.
Addressing the conference, Standing Vice Chairman
of the provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Toan and Deputy General
Director of the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism Pham Van Thuy asked
local authorities to work with relevant ministries, sectors, and localities to
ensure pandemic safety and increase popularising Hoa Binh’s tourism among
domestic travellers, especially those in Hanoi.
They requested travel companies to realise their
commitment to reducing prices but keeping quality, boost the advertisement of
promotional programmes, improve people and businesses’ awareness of the
pandemic prevention and control, ensure safety for tourists and workers, pay
attention to food safety, and carry out environmental protection measures.
On this occasion, the Hanoi UNESCO Travel Club
