Accelerating coordination in tourism

The departments of Culture, Sports and Tourism in four northern provinces of Ha Giang, Tuyen Quang, Cao Bang and Bac Kan have signed an agreement to boost co-operation in tourism development.
Accordingly, the four provinces will help each other to take full advantage of each province to develop tourism to minimize difficulties. They will take it in turns to organise an annual “tour of heritage sites” programme (first in Ha Giang, then Tuyen Quang, Cao Bang and Bac Kan).
They will build tourism management and development mechanisms, and co-operate in developing tours, human resources, infrastructure, telecommunications and tourism promotion.
Dam Van Bong, vice chairman of the Ha Giang People’s Committee emphaised that in the international integration process, tourism is considered a key economic sector to bring about practical benefits for socio-economic development and make a significant contribution to the GDP growth of each locality and the country as well.
Currently, tourism destinations in each province have not attracted many customers so accelerating co-ordination will help improve their appeal..
