A protocol was signed in Hanoi on January 20 by the Deputy Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Tran Chien Thang and the Luxembourg Ambassador in Vietnam Marc Ungeheuer.
The project will take place in Hanoi and Hai Phong City in the North, Danang and Nha Trang cities in the Central region, Ho Chi Minh City, Vung Tau and Can Tho cities in the South as well as Dalat City in the Central Highlands over three years.
Ambassador Ungeheuer said at the signing ceremony he believed in the development of Vietnam’s tourist industry, which can generate many more jobs to enable local people to escape from the poverty trap.
He stated that by improving the capacity of the human resources in the tourist industry will help it to become more competitive and attract increased numbers of visitors from overseas.
The project is the fourth of its kind in Vietnam sponsored by the Luxembourg government. The three previous projects, which had a combined value of over EUR10.3 million, have been in operation in Vietnam since 1997.
