A trade mission comprising 40 Hong Kong travel agencies and the
Hong Kong Tourism Association will come to Vietnam next month to look for local
partners.
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.
