VIỆT NAM’S DESTINATIONS, E-VISA POLICY PROMOTED IN HONG KONG
A workshop promoting Việt Nam’s tourist destinations and e-visa policy took place in Hong Kong (China) on March 14.
Co-organised by the Vietnam Airlines branch in the region and the Society of IATA Passenger Agents Ltd (SIPA), the event gathered representatives of the Vietnamese Consulate General in Hong Kong and Macau and CEOs and senior managers of many local travel companies.
In his opening remarks, the head of the Vietnam Airlines branch, Ngô Trí Hùng, said Hong Kong residents consider Việt Nam an attractive place for its scenic spots, friendly people, diverse culture, exquisite cuisine, and near distance of just several hours' flight. Vietnam Airlines is operating 11 weekly flights between Hong Kong and Hanoi/Ho Chi Minh City.
The workshop introduced the latest top Vietnamese destinations as voted by TripAdvisor like Ha Long Bay, the Sapa resort town and the ancient citadel of Hue.
In particular, Consul Nguyễn Minh Tuấn from the Consulate General informed the participants about the advantages and convenience of the e-visas, such as simple procedures that save time.
SIPA Chairman Tommy Tam told the Vietnam News Agency that Hong Kong residents are fond of traveling to Việt nam. He expressed his hope to see Vietnamese tourism businesses bringing their products to the upcoming International Travel Expo (ITE) Hong Kong scheduled for June.

VIETNAM'S MANUFACTURING STORY HAS CHANGED IN 2026

VIỆT NAM STEPS UP EXPORT TO ACHIEVE US$550-BILLION TARGET
Việt Nam is intensifying efforts to sustain export momentum in the second half of 2026 as the country works towards its target of US$550 billion in export revenue for the year, despite continuing uncertainties in global trade. Statistics show that exports reached $266.5 billion in the first six months, meaning the economy needs to generate around $245.5 billion more during the remainder of the year to meet the annual goal.
ASIA POWERS VIETNAM’S SHRIMP BOOM, LEAVING THE WEST BEHIND
In the first half of 2026, Vietnam's shrimp exports surpassed the US$2.3 billion mark, driven largely by booming demand from China and a lobster craze. But behind that growth figure lies a lopsided picture: Asia is carrying the load, while the U.S. and Europe have yet to break out. These days, a container of frozen shrimp leaving a Ho Chi Minh City port is more likely to cross the East Vietnam Sea to Shanghai than the Pacific to Los Angeles.
