HCMC is focusing on investing and exploiting MICE (meetings, incentives, conferences, and exhibitions) tourism, targeting high-spending visitors. The city’s tourism sector will be interested in improving the quality of services and renewing products to attract visitors and develop HCMC into one of the most lively cities in Southeast Asia and Asia.

In this visit, the delegation will take trips to provinces and cities in the Mekong Delta and hope to join tours to Hanoi and central coastal localities the next time.
