VOV.VN - The Tourism Organization of Gyeonggi – the most populous province in the Republic of Korea (RoK) has included Vietnam in its tourism marketing strategy.
The organization said the number of Vietnamese tourists to the RoK increased by 15% last year in spite of an outbreak of the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) in the country.
Seung Pyo Hong, CEO of Gyeonggi Tourism Organization said the body will further cooperate with the Korea Tourism Organisation (KTO) in Vietnam, low-cost airlines, and partners to promote tourism activities. He unveiled a plan to invite the media to disseminate information on RoK tourism and issue tourist coupons.
