Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee
Nguyen Van Toan and central and local officials mark the start of the 2022
travel stimulus programme of Hoa Binh.
Themed "Hoa Binh, safe tourism destination -
full experience”, the programme aims to assist enterprises in the industry to
recover their operations. It also looks to introduce Hoa Binh as a safe
destination with a wide range of attractive experiences to the public and
visitors.
With enhanced communications, event
organisation, and destination introduction, the programme is expected to create
conditions for units, localities, and travel companies to cooperate with one
another to revive and develop the sector while safe adapting to and effectively
controlling the COVID-19, thereby helping welcome 2.5 million visitors and earn
over 2.4 trillion VND (104.7 million USD) in revenue this year as targeted by
Hoa Binh.
As part of the conference, businesses also
announced their travel stimulus packages.
Addressing the event, Vice Chairman of the
provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Toan asked departments, sectors,
members of the Hoa Binh tourism steering committee, and district-level People’s
Committees to press on with implementing the province’s tourism development
project for 2021 - 2025 with a vision to 2030, as well as Plan No. 44/KH-UBND,
issued by the provincial People’s Committee on March 9 this year, on travel
stimulation.
Tourism businesses should realise their
announced commitments by reducing prices but not quality and developing new
products so as to meet tourists’ growing demand. It is also necessary to step
up communications to introduce promotional programmes and new services while
encouraging civilised behaviours and the adherence to the 5K principle (khau
trang - wearing face masks, khu khuan - disinfection, khoang cach - keeping
distance, khai bao - making health declaration, khong tu tap - no gathering).
The Vietnam Tourism Association, travel firms, along with central and local
media outlets should also support stimulus programmes of local businesses, he
added./.

Waste collection sites and wastewater treatment facilities have been meticulously managed by local residents.
To make it easier for the residents to handle administrative procedures, Yen Bong Commune (Lac Thuy District) has identified the administrative reform as one of its key tasks.

Mai Chau district has firmly established itself as a standout destination on Vietnam’s tourism map, attracting both domestic and international visitors with its breathtaking landscapes, rich ethnic culture, and warm hospitality. However, beyond its natural and cultural charm, a secure and well-managed tourism environment has added to Mai Chau’s appeal.
