NDO – The Southwest Region Steering Committee (SRSC) hosted an opening ceremony of the 2015 Mekong Delta Green Tourism Week in Can Tho city on June 26.

The ceremony was attended by former State President Tran Duc Luong; and Politburo members Le Hong Anh, Permanent member of the Party Central Committee Secretariat; Nguyen Thi Kim Ngan, National Assembly Vice Chairwoman; and Vu Van Ninh, Deputy Prime Minister and Head of the SRSC.

Addressing the opening ceremony, Deputy PM Vu Van Ninh spoke highly of the Mekong Delta tourism development over the past years, which significantly contributed to the regional socio-economic development as well as the preservation of the tradition culture.

The Mekong Delta provinces should also make full use of their advantages, strengthen links for green tourism development, as well as mobilise all resources to invest in tourism infrastructure and enhance human resource development, he noted.

Scheduled to run until July 4, the week-long festival features activities to promote investment in eco-tourism and create links among regional provinces as well as between the region and other localities.

The event also provides a good opportunity for local and foreign travel agencies to showcase their products and services at over 1,000 booths at a fair in the riverside area of the Can Tho River in Cai Rang District of Can Tho City.
