(HBO) - The State management over tourism in Hoa Binh remains inadequate due to lack of managers and qualified human resources for the sector.
The art troupe of Thai Binh ward (Hoa Binh city)
was joined by tourists in a Xoe dance at the Muong Culture Space Museum.
In order to develop tourism into a spearhead economic sector, the
provincial Steering Committee for Tourism Development has set out specific
tasks and solutions, of which an important one is developing human resources
serving the sector.
On the one hand, the province will build preferential mechanisms for
attracting qualified human resources for the local tourism industry (with
priority given to building a contingent of professional and competitive tourist
workers), thus enhancing the sector’s competitiveness and attracting more
tourists to the locality. On the other hand, the locality will focus on the training
work, thus improving professional capacity and skills for staff in charge of State
management of tourism at all levels, and the management capacity for units,
enterprises, and business households involved in tourism.
Training will also be provided for persons who are working at tourism
sites, hotels, restaurants. Attention will be given to training local labourers
for service jobs at tourism sites, in hospitality establishments and in transporting
visitors, especially in the Hoa Binh Lake national tourism area and Mai Chau
district. The province will promote social investment, especially cooperation
and involvement of enterprises and organisations, in human resource training
for tourism.
These orientations have been concretised into specific action programmes,
under which more training courses in tourism skills were held in 2017.
Mr. Lo Cao Nhum, who runs a household tourism business in Lac village,
Chieng Chau commune in Mai Chau district, said in July 2017, the provincial
Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism organised a five-day training course on
homestay tourism for business households in the district. At the course, lecturers
from the Hanoi Tourism College provided learners with basic skills in serving
tourists at homestay accommodations; in communicating and handling various situations
arising in the process of serving visitors; as well as in ensuring security, safety,
and food hygiene.
"The course helped us run our business in a more professional and effective
manner”, he stressed, adding that almost kids in the locality can now use
English to communicate with foreign tourists. /.
On the occasion of the Lunar New Year, visitors from near and far are eager to come to the mountainous district of Da Bac to have unique cultural experiences such as learning to wrap traditional cakes of ethnic minorities, practicing writing ancient Tay characters or immersing themselves in the Tay melodies.
Tan Lac has great potential for tourism development. In addition, the Provincial Party Committee issued Resolution No. 13-NQ/TU, dated October 17, 2022, on building the highland communes in Tan Lac district into provincial-level tourism areas by 2030, with a vision to 2050. However, according to the assessment, implementing the goals in the spirit of Resolution No. 13-NQ/TU has had limited results.
Recognising that tourism and agriculture are local strengths, Mai Chau district is committed to building a green economy through an action program with specific pathways, achieving notable results in line with the resolution of the 26th Party Congress of the district.
With its majestic natural landscapes, diverse ethnic cultures, and numerous unique festivals, Hoa Binh province is an attractive destination that entices travellers from far and wide to explore and experience during the Lunar New Year (Tet) holiday.
Being held around the 30th of the 11th lunar month right after the harvest season ends, the traditional New Year of Mong ethnic group lasts until the last day of the 12th lunar month. On this occasion, the community tourism destinations of Pa Co and Hang Kia communes (Mai Chau) attract many visitors to experience and explore the unique customs of New Year.
Located just a 20-minute drive from Hoa Binh City, Ora Hill Farmstay & Glamping Hoa Binh is a captivating new destination nestled in Mo hamlet, Bình Thanh commune, Cao Phong district. Combining farming with leisure, this tranquil retreat is perfect for those seeking balance, joy, and an immersive experience in the expansive beauty of nature.
