Solutions to promote the role of Vinh Long province in connecting tourism development in the Mekong delta

Abstract

Linking tourism development is becoming an inevitable requirement of the market economy, especially in the context of globalization and digital transformation as today. Vinh Long province is located in the center of the region, with a favorable geographical location and rich tourism resources, playing an important role in tourism development of the Mekong Delta in general and the Eastern Tourism Cluster of the Mekong Delta in particular. However, due to subjective and objective factors, the role of Vinh Long in linking cluster space inside and outside the region to develop tourism is still not commensurate with its potential and strengths. This study analyzes the role of Vinh Long in linking tourism development in the Mekong Delta in general and the Eastern Tourism Cluster of the Mekong Delta in particular. From there, propose solutions to promote the role of Vinh Long in linking tourism development in the Mekong Delta in the trend of globalization and the context of digital transformation today.
