Luxembourg helps Vietnam develop human resources for tourism
This is a co-operative project between the two governments to help improve the tourism and hospitality procedures in Vietnam to reach international standard.
Ambassador Marc said that tourism will help local people to escape poverty and develop human resources for the tourism industry to attract more international visitors.
The project will be implemented in Hanoi, Hai Phong, Hue, Da Nang, Nha Trang, Vung Tau, Da Lat, Ho Chi Minh City and Can Tho in three years. The total capital for the project is 3.3 million euro, of which 2.95 million euro has been funded by Luxembourg.
Under the protocol, Luxembourg will help Vietnam to improve the capacity and quality of training, and expand and upgrade training centres in several provinces and cities. It will also help to build restaurants and practice cookies in Ho Chi Minh City, Ba Ria-Vung Tau, and Hanoi. Training centres will be equipped with modern teaching facilities while teachers will have access to advanced teaching methodologies to improve HR quality to guarantee sustainable development in the tourism sector.
This is the fourth time Luxembourg has assisted Vietnam in implementing projects to improve tourism and hospitality HR. Three other projects have been carried out in Vietnam since 1997 with a combined capital of 10.3 million euro.
