Tran
Vinh Loc, director of Lac Hong Voyages, which is arranging the visit,
said the delegation would meet with about 100 local travel firms on
November 17 and 18 in HCMC and Hanoi.
“The Hong Kong enterprises are interested in building business links to spur tourism cooperation,” Loc told the Daily.
Hong
Kong is regarded as one of the ten key markets for Vietnam this year,
Loc said, and this first such marketing trip to Vietnam by Hong Kong’s
partners will pave the way for a series of tourism promotion programs to
be carried out in Vietnam in the coming time.
Hong Kong is
paying attention to the Vietnamese market as it has recently launched
tourism brochures for Vietnamese-speaking tourists, added Loc. According
to the HCMC Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, Hong Kong was one
of the five most favorite destinations of local tourists in the first
nine months of the year. |
