due heed to promotion campaigns, development of standout products, and human
resources training, among others.
The locality will mobilise resources to effectively implement the central and
local resolutions, programmes, plans and projects on tourism development. It is
striving to host 3.3 million arrivals in 2020, 500,000 of them foreign, and
gain 2.5 trillion VND in tourism revenue.
Concluding the conference, Cuu said that it is necessary to accelerate
administrative reform, build rational mechanisms and preferential policies for
tourism development, as well as enhance management of natural resources and

eight northwestern localities, Hanoi and several cities and provinces across
the nation, he said, adding developing new tourism products and paying
attention to preserving and promoting local culture and values of relic sites
are seen as effective measures to branch out local tourism./.
