VietNamNet Bridge - HCM City’s
Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism will work with tourist
agencies to hold an international tourism investment conference, which
will present Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam as destinations, on September
30 and October 1.
The Tourism Investment Conference 2009
(TIC) will be a chance for cities and provinces in the country to
introduce their major tourism projects to more than 100 international
investors.
The exposition will focus on developing
tourism for the three countries, presenting tourism investment
opportunities in “Three Countries, One Destination,” and creating a
stable tourism development strategy.
The organizers hope the conference will open effective cooperation opportunities between the state and private travel firms.
Tran The Dung, deputy director of Young
Generation Travel Company, said service providers, such as
accommodation, restaurant, yachts and transportation, in Sapa, Ha Long,
Hue and Hoi An have offered five to ten percent discounts compared with
last month to attract local visitors during the off-peak season.
