Viet Nam launches tourism promotion campaign in Russia

(VNA)- A Saigon Tourist executive cited political stability and high security as one of many advantages of Viet Nam's tourism to attract interest from Russians.

Deputy Director General Nguyen Huyen of the Saigon Tourist also highlighted the country's riches in world famous resorts and natural beauty in a Viet Nam tourism presentation held in Moscow on September 22 in the presence of Vietnamese Ambassador Nguyen Van Nganh.

"In Viet Nam you can enjoy high living conditions with a series of international standard hotels but spend less because of the country's low living costs," said the executive of the nation's leading travel agent, which has set up partnership with over 300 foreign travel agents from 30 countries.

Russia is a market of great potential with arrivals on the rise from 8,.600 in 2003 to 12,200 in 2004 and almost 14,900 in the first eight months of this year.

The Viet Nam Administration of Tourism is intensifying its promotion campaigns abroad to reach this year's targets of 3.5 million foreign arrivals and over 2 billion USD in revenue.

Last year Viet Nam received over 2.93 million foreign arrivals.
