As a center connecting provinces in the region, HCMC organized many activities and travel marketing events to promote the tourism development of every locality and the region.
Besides achievements, there remained constraints due to the Covid-19 pandemic, such as the regional linkage in tourism development in the 2020-2021 period that was not carried out and delayed progress in implementation.
