The Vietnamese tourism industry together overcome the “storm”of Covid-19

The year of 2020 marks a strong link between localities and businesses in many activities to stimulate tourism demand.

Whether a country is rated exemplary handling epidemics, Vietnam is also affected from Covid-19. In the last months of 2020, the central region also suffers from historic floods and severe consequences from 10 storms and tropical depressions. This causes the number of international visitors to Vietnam to decrease significantly compared to 2019.
