Viet Nam’s Embassy in Chile joined the ASEAN Tourism Information Fair on June 22 in Santiago, Chile’s capital, which attracted hundreds of companies operating in the tourism sector in Chile and other countries.
Vietnamese Ambassador to Chile Ngo Duc Thang attended a talk in the framework of the fair where he introduced Viet Nam, its people as well as UNESCO-recognised heritage sites.
The embassy also distributed leaflets, books to visitors and screened the video clip Welcome to Viet Nam at the event.
