activities was estimated at about 180 trillion VND (7.9 billion USD), down 42
percent year on year.
Participants at the event clarified difficulties and shortcomings of the sector
as well as the results reaped by each locality in 2021. They also agreed on the
tasks for the sector in 2022.
Addressing the conference, Deputy Prime Minister Vu Duc Dam lauded efforts and
achievements of the sector in 2021. He stressed that in 2022, the sector should
further promote its role and effectively implement its tasks, while removing
obstacles in policy and mechanism, strongly speeding up digitalisation in
tourism activities, and promptly and stably recovering tourism activities.
Meanwhile, the sector should focus on preparing for the 31st SEA Games and
making strong performance at the event, he asked. He also urged the sector to
implement concerted measures to build a healthy cultural environment, while
strengthening communications to promote culture, sports and tourism activities
both inside and outside the country./.
