World tourism body to help Vietnam

Friday, 14 May 2010 09:30

World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) has pledged to help Vietnam’s tourism sector by training human resources and creating development schemes to promote certain attractions.

The pledge was made at the 22nd Joint Meeting of the UNWTO for East Asia and South Asia, which began in Hanoi on May 10 and finished on May 12.

The UNWTO conference titled “Tourism: A Key Driver for Social-Economic Development in Asia and the Pacific” took place at the same time.

UNWTO sent experts to areas including Ha Giang Province and Ba Be Lake in Bac Kan Province to develop the communities’ tourism industry.

In addition, UNWTO may send Vietnamese tourism officials to work in their headquarters in Spain to develop important skills.

Taleb Rifai, UNWTO’s General Secretary, already approved some of the activities in a meeting held in Spain with Director General of Vietnam National Administration of Tourism (VNAT) Nguyen Van Tuan earlier this year.

However, VNAT said they still had to confirm exact schedules with UNWTO to implement the plans.

The tourism sector contributed about US$4.05 billion to the country’s GDP last year. Nearly 300 international tourism experts and officials from the Asia Pacific region participated in the meeting.
