According to Hanh, the province boasts the highest rate of people getting third COVID-19 vaccine shots in Vietnam as well as a safe, flexible, and effective adaptation to the pandemic.
Via communications campaigns, the development of new products, including night-time economic activities, and the organisation of large-scale tourism, sport, and cultural events, the province’s tourism recovery programme this year targets a full restoration of all activities and products; and safety for tourists.
Hanh informed that in February and March, the local authorities will work with big travel companies and competent agencies of such key tourist markets as Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.
