The Mekong Delta Green Tourism Week 2015 kicks off
 
 
(TITC)- On June 29, 2015, The Mekong Delta Green Tourism Week 2015 was officially opened in Can Tho in the presence of senior Party, State officials, domestic and int’l tourists, local people and media press.
 
 
The event aimed to promote local tourism, popularize tourism potentials and special products of the localities in coordination with environmental protection and sustainable development.
 
Speaking at the event, Deputy Prime Minister and Head of the Southwest Steering Committee Vu Van Ninh said Mekong Delta has mild climate, dense river system, diversified culture and natural resources to develop economy and tourism. Therefore, the localities should enhance regional links to develop special tourist products with high competitiveness to meet high demands of domestic and int’l tourists, he added.
 
Recently, Mekong Delta has become a tourist hub of the country. The number of arrivals increasing year by year has contributed to economic growth of the region, creating jobs and increasing income for local people.
 
With the available potential, regional local authorities should develop more unique tourism products such as eco-tourism, island tourism, MICE tourism … as well as enhance the quality of human resources, propaganda to raise community’s awareness in tourism promotion to attract more tourists to the Mekong Delta region.
