The contest provides a creative platform for individuals to share unique stories about Vietnam as a contribution to building the nation’s image as a safe, friendly, and attractive destination. It also aligns with the tourism sector’s digital transformation strategy, leveraging technology, social media, and short-form video platforms.
Tran Hoang Nam, Chairman of the Tourism Development Support Fund, highlighted that the contest aims to promote Vietnam as a high-quality, sustainable destination with stunning landscapes, distinctive culture, and well-developed tourism services. The initiative combines modern promotional methods, community creativity, and state and social resources to enhance the national tourism brand and video database in support of nationwide campaigns.
