Viet Nam among top 10 world’s friendliest countries
VGP – Viet Nam has ranked ninth among the ten friendliest countries in the world, according to a survey by InterNations.
InterNations conducted a survey of over 180 countries to find out which countries are most welcoming to expats and foreign travelers. The survey measured each country’s friendly attitude toward expats, ease of making local friends, and expats likely to stay forever.
The ten friendliest countries have rates from 81 percent to 94 percent for friendly attitudes towards foreign residents. These are far above the global average rate of 67 percent.
Experts believe that this rank will become one of the favorable factors for tourists to choose Viet Nam for their post-COVID-19 experience, thus helping the country’s non-smoke industry revive.
Earlier this year, Viet Nam was also ranked the 10th best place in the world for expats, according to the recently released 2021 Expat Inside Survey by InterNations.
Regarding the Ease of Settling In index, Viet Nam was ranked 25th globally and secured ninth place for ease in making local friends.
