the handover of the portal
The smart tourism portal of Hoa Binh is a component of the smart urban
development solution, using information and communication technology to form a
tourism ecosystem and create mutual reciprocal benefits among visitors,
authorities and businesses, contributing to sustainable economic development.
The system is expected to help State management agencies improve the efficiency
of tourism management, ensure security and social order, promote tourism,
develop international markets and increase budget collection thanks to social
investment in tourism.
After the project was approved, the provincial Department of Information and
Communications worked with the provincial Department of Culture, Sports and
Tourism and the VNPT Hoa Binh to promptly build the portal.
Speaking at the ceremony, Vice Chairman Toan emphasised that the portal is an
effective support tool for local tourism development while also promoting
digital transformation in tourism under the national and local digital
transformation scheme, contributing to gradually realising goals and tasks set
in Resolution on tourism development adopted by the provincial Party Congress.
Lauding the provincial Department of Information and Communications for
ensuring the project’s progress, he asked the Department of Culture, Sports and
Tourism to effectively operate and manage the system. The Department of
Information and Communications must ensure servers, IT infrastructure and
information safety at the local data centre while popularising the portal among
local organisations, enterprises and residents. The VNPT Hoa Binh will continue
offering technical support to the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism and
further perfect the system in the future while continuing to operating the wifi
system free of charge as committed./.
Hoa Binh has taken measures, focusing on removing barriers in terms of mechanism, policy, infrastructure, and upgrading technical infrastructure facilities serving tourism and the quality of human resources, to promote tourism development in the Hoa Binh Lake area.
Over the past time, Da Bac has deployed measures to lure more domestic and foreign visitors to the locality, aiming to turn tourism into the district’s economic spearhead.
Covering an area of over 52,000 hectares spanning districts of Mai Chau, Tan Lac, Cao Phong, Da Bac, and Hoa Binh City, Hoa Binh lake has strong potential for tourism development. In recent years, thanks to the attention of local Party Committees and authorities as well as support from international organisations, the advantages of tourism in the lake area have been utilised.
Mai Chau is a mountainous district and home to many ethnic groups such as Thai, Muong, Kinh, Mong, Dao, and Tay with distinctive cultural identities, creating a diverse and unique cultural treasure. Aware of its advantages, the district has paid attention to the preservation and promotion of ethnic groups’ cultural values so that culture will become a leverage for tourism and contribute to socio-economic development and life quality improvement.
