France sea
tourism festival spotlights Vietnam
Vietnam’s sea tourism potential will be under the spotlight
at a festival scheduled to take place in Paris from April
28-29.
 The
festival, the first of its kind in France, will be jointly
organised by Vietnam Airlines and the Bank for Investment
and Development of Vietnam (BIDV) and aims to introduce the
country’s premier landmarks and tourist sites to foreigners,
and realise the government’s goal to maintain economic
growth, stimulate demand, and boost consumption and service
exports.
Twenty-five tourism management agencies from sea
tourism-rich provinces and cities, such as Khanh Hoa and
Danang, will join leading hotel, travel and coastal resort
businesses at the festival.
The France Chamber of Commerce and Industry and hundreds of
investors and travel agencies from France and other European
countries are expected to attend the event.
Local visitors will have the opportunity to better
understand the traditional culture, land and people of
Vietnam through a variety of performances, exhibitions and
handicraft product displays, as well as activities featuring
the daily life of coastal residents.
The festival is an invaluable opportunity for Vietnamese
businesses to seek European partners, and particularly for
BIDV to cooperate with the leading financial institutions of
France and Europe
BIDV will host a seminar calling for investment in tourism
projects in Vietnam. The bank has arranged more than USD2
billion for nearly 20 projects in popular coastal cities
around the country, including Danang, Quang Nam, Khanh Hoa,
Haiphong and Quang Ninh.
Vietnam Airlines General Director Pham Ngoc Minh says the
event will help promote Vietnam to the European community,
thereby increasing investment efficiency and the number of
visitors to Vietnam.
In early February, Vietnam Airlines participated in the
annual Brussels Tourism Fair in Belgium, where experts
forecast that Asia, and Vietnam in particular, remain
attractive destinations for European travelers.
