The Thai newswire said, the plan is to boost trade, investment, tourism and MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions).
Thailand is striving to become a center for MICE tourism in Southeast Asia, and considering Viet Nam as one of its potential partners for cooperation in this field.
The aim is to push for the maritime route linking the three countries, which will create a market under the concept of "One Market, Three Destinations".
Embarking on Southeast Asia travel promises an extraordinary exploration of vibrant cultures, stunning landscapes, and culinary treasures. Specifically, Viet Nam, Thailand, and Cambodia are packed with exciting cities, beautiful landscapes, and rich history.
Viet Nam served nearly 7.6 million international holiday-makers in the first five months of 2024, up 64.9 percent year-on-year and 3.9 percent compared to the same period in 2019 before the COVID-19 pandemic broke out./.
