Under the agreement, signed last weekend by leaders of the departments of culture, sports and tourism, the three localities in the central region will focus on sharing their information on the development of tourism, as well as implementing tourism promotion programmes in their localities and advertising tourism activities for their partners.

In addition, special attention will be paid to developing their own special tourism products, and appealing for more investment into their localities.

The purpose is to further promote the development of tourism in the three localities in order to reach their sustainability development, as well as build their tourism brand names, and improve their competitiveness.

At the event, discussions focused on assessing strengths and weaknesses relating to the development of tourism in the three localities. Their tourism potentials and cooperative opportunities were also introduced at the event.

Mutual support will be increased to build effective strategies to advertise tourism images of the three localities, as well as promote their tourism brand names as attractive destinations.

Top priority will also be on developing their own special tourism products to meet the diversified demands of domestic and international tourists.
