According to the Ha Giang provincial People’s Committee, the tourism programme aims to enhance measures to promptly adapt to the epidemic situation which is affecting tourism growth as well as diversifing and improving the quality of tourism products in the province.

It is also expected to promote the domestic tourism market, encourage and attract more people to travel to Ha Giang, mobilise social resources associated with the role and responsibilities of businesses, citizens and visitors, as well as improve the image, position and prestige of Ha Giang tourism.

The programme is scheduled to take place from June until the end of 2020.
