Ha Van Sieu, Deputy Director General of the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism, believes that the “Wonderful Indonesia – Sales Mission” event on April 12 will lead to more Vietnamese and Indonesian tourists traveling to each other’s countries.

He went on to say that Vietnam welcomed 2.7 million foreign visitors in the first quarter of 2023, including 21,000 Indonesians. Sieu noted that “the event has further strengthened the relationship between Vietnam and Indonesia”.

Denny Abdi, Ambassador of Indonesia to Vietnam, emphasized the value of relationships and cooperation between tourism businesses during the pandemic. He also affirmed that the tourism sector is both countries’ growth engine.

According to the Indonesian Ambassador, the tourism industry has quickly adapted its policies and strategies to changes in traveler behavior due to the pandemic.

With the current trend, the ambassador said, tourism development must place more emphasis on environmental protection, respect for local culture, community, and customs, and balance between mass and quality travel.

Currently, the country’s strategy to embrace the new trend includes five top priority sites: Borobudur, Mandalika, Labuan Bajo, Lake Toba and Likupang.

He said that Indonesia hopes to welcome 7.6 million foreign tourists this year. Vietnam is Indonesia’s fourth largest inbound market in ASEAN after Malaysia, Singapore and the Philippines.

To achieve this goal, the ambassador said it is necessary to improve connectivity and strengthen international cooperation. Indonesia offers visa-free travel for citizens of all ASEAN countries. The country will also host many international events to boost tourism demand in the coming period.

The Indonesian Ambassador to Vietnam stressed that this event marks Indonesia’s commitment to making the tourism industry the engine of Indonesia’s economic recovery and sustainable development.

Vietnam’s opponents in the semifinals will be hosts Cambodia. The Philippines took an early lead in Tuesday’s game thanks to a penalty awarded in the 11th minute after Vietnamese goalkeeper Tran Thi Kim Thanh fouled a Philippine striker in the box. Vietnam struggled to create scoring opportunities before finding an equalizer in the 41st minute, when goalkeeper Olivia McDaniel failed to catch a cross from defender Nguyen Thi My Anh and let Nguyen Thi Bich Thuy net on the rebound.
