With Vietnam becoming an attractive tourist spot in Asia, much attention is placed on projecting the country well to the World.

Vietnam has allotted a staggering US $42.5 billion across 10 years duration in order to build up Vietnam tourism infrastructure, services and the like.
As per the plan, Vietnam travel authorities have also decided to target India as a potential source of tourists to Vietnam. The plan has as its aim raising Vietnam's domestic tourists from 28 million last year to 48 million and foreign visitors from around 5 to 10 million.
