As living standards improve, people's spending increases accordingly. In the past, the need for entertainment and tourism was only for a small number of people with high incomes, but today this need has become essential for many groups of people, especially in big cities and urban areas.
2.3.1.2 Tourism industry activities .
- Regarding tourism growth forecast : According to the forecast of the World Travel and Tourism Council in 2008, Vietnam's tourism industry will contribute to the country's GDP at 4.3% in 2008, equivalent to VND 57,259.8 billion, and will reach VND 158,002 billion in 2018 and account for 4.4% of GDP.
- Regarding government investment in the tourism industry : Vietnam's tourism investment is estimated at 39,242.7 billion VND , equivalent to 8.4% of the total investment in 2008. It is forecasted that by 2018, this figure will reach 105,658 billion , equivalent to 9.5% of the total investment of the economy.
- Regarding tourism promotion work :
+ Although there have been positive signals in promoting the image of Vietnam tourism in recent times, tourists have known an image of Vietnam as beautiful, rich in natural landscapes, safe and friendly. However, the industry's tourism promotion and advertising work still has many issues that need to be reviewed.
+ Frequency of participation in international tourism events is still limited; participating booths are small in scale, disadvantageous in location and also do not effectively demonstrate the image and abundant tourism potential of the country;
+ Poor tourism advertising publications, poor quality, lack of information and not widely disseminated in the industry for general promotion; Lack of tourist information stations at important tourist destinations. Recently, the tourism industry has struggled to come up with a slogan for the industry, which is: " Vietnam, the hidden charm " ;
+ On the other hand, domestic tourism promotion is facing problems.
Inadequate, localities compete to organize tourism festivals such as: Phuong Land Festival
Nam; Ho Chi Minh City Tourism Festival in Ho Chi Minh City; Mekong Delta Tourism; Nghe An Tourism Year; Ha Long Tourism Festival; Sea Tourism Festival; Da Lat Flower Festival... The widespread organization, poor planning and direction from the General Department leads to a waste of the national budget and ineffectiveness in promotion work.
- Related policies: Bilateral visa exemption agreements: 8 According to the official announcement of the Vietnamese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, we have signed visa exemption agreements with 46 countries that have good economic and diplomatic relations with Vietnam. For neighboring China, we have made it easier to travel by using travel documents instead of entry visas. In particular, international businessmen and tourists will be exempted from visas if they stay less than 15 days after flying to Phu Quoc.
- Regarding competitiveness ranking : At present (2007) , Vietnam is ranked 87/124 countries in terms of tourism competitiveness. Switzerland is at the top of the list , Singapore is ranked 8th , Malaysia is 31st , Thailand is 43rd. Accordingly, Vietnam's tourism regulations , policies, and infrastructure are ranked at the bottom; only the price and security are highly appreciated .
2.3.1.3 Political - legal
- Vietnam's political situation is always considered the most stable and secure in the world today. This is one of the advantages that Vietnam has to compete with other countries in the region in attracting foreign investment and international tourists to Vietnam.
- The Vietnamese government has issued a visa exemption policy for Vietnamese people residing abroad. This is considered an important event to attract overseas Vietnamese to return home to travel and contribute to the development of the country. Currently, Vietnam has about 3 million overseas Vietnamese living in about 90 countries around the world. According to the forecast of the Committee for Overseas Vietnamese, the number of overseas Vietnamese returning home to celebrate Tet increases by 30-40% per year on average and is expected to increase further.

9 According to VnEconomy, April 5, 2007
- Regarding regional politics: Unlike Vietnam, the political situation in some countries recently has been very complicated and unstable, typically the bombing in Bali in 2002, the rebellion in the Philippines, the coup in Thailand in 2006...
- The Law on Tourism, issued in 2005, is considered the most important legal basis affecting the tourism industry and is an important event that has created a mechanism for tourism services to develop rapidly and sustainably.
- Recently, the Vietnamese government has made efforts to create a legal environment more suitable to international trade practices, specifically by issuing a common enterprise law, investment law and securities bills, complying with the operation of a market economy and allowing foreign investors to participate in sensitive areas such as telecommunications, finance, insurance and banking.
2.3.1.4 Culture - society
- Cultural identity : Along with positive political and economic factors, cultural factors have also contributed significantly to attracting investors and tourists to Vietnam in recent times. Vietnam has a history of thousands of years with nearly 600 unique ethnic cultural festivals taking place throughout the year and Vietnam's tourist destinations are still new to the majority of the world's communities. That creates the richness and potential appeal of Vietnam's tourism products.
- Young population : Vietnam is considered to have the youngest population in the region, skilled and educated. In addition , according to the announcement of the global market research company Taylor Nelson, Vietnam's young population has the highest spending level in the region and adapts to new technology very quickly, Vietnam's level of technology application is on par with developed countries in the region, even in some fields Vietnam has skipped the stages that countries in the region have gone through before.
- Natural conditions : In addition , Vietnam also has favorable natural conditions for tourism development and attracting international visitors , many beautiful landscapes recognized by UNESCO and world biosphere reserves. In particular, Vietnam has one of the brightest candidates for the title of world natural wonder in the exciting vote taking place globally, which is Ha Long Bay.
- Diseases and natural disasters: . Greatly affecting the development of Vietnam's tourism in recent years, such as SARS, avian flu (H5N1)... still haunt tourists and travel companies, with the risk of recurrence and new epidemics arising unforeseeably.
2.3.1.5 Technology .
- The trend of using payment cards : Recently , the penetration of international credit card organizations such as Visa, Master, these big brands have positively impacted the birth of a series of card alliances, creating convenient conditions for customers in paying for goods and services. The convenience of international credit cards has stimulated tourism and made tourists spend more.
- Investment in e - commerce : According to a study by VCCI in 2006, the rate of travel businesses with internet connection reached nearly 80%, which is quite high compared to other countries in the region today. However , the development of e - commerce and management software in Vietnam is still poor, with over 70% of surveyed travel businesses responding that they were not interested and less than 30% of businesses committed to investing in software.
2.3.1.6 Human resources .
- According to the assessment of the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism, there are currently more than 850 thousand workers in the tourism sector, of which 250 thousand are direct workers; 600 thousand are indirect workers. However, only about 50% of these workers have been trained. 10
- It is forecasted that by 2010, Vietnam will welcome from 5.5 million to 6 million international visitors and about 25 million domestic visitors. Therefore, the tourism industry needs about 1.4 million workers (of which direct workers are about 350 thousand people, the average annual growth rate is 8.5% so the corresponding figure in 2015 will be more than 503 thousand people). 11 Meanwhile, the total number of tourism vocational training establishments is currently only 70 units, with the number of students graduating about 13 thousand people each year. With
10 Tourism human resources: High demand, weak supply (Electronic newspaper - Vietnam Economic Times, updated on December 19, 2007).
11 National Action Programs of the tourism industry from 2007-2012 .
This situation is a challenge in terms of quantity and quality of tourism human resources in response to market demand.
2.3.1.7 Competitors .
- Ho Chi Minh City is currently the place with the most travel agencies in the country. By the end of 2006, there were 255 international travel agencies, 263 domestic travel agencies and nearly 30 representative offices of foreign travel companies operating in the area. This is a huge challenge for Eden Travel if it wants to compete and expand its market share.
- Among the top 10 tourism businesses in Vietnam today, Ho Chi Minh City has contributed 6 companies and those are companies holding very large market shares such as Saigontourist, Apex, Exotissimo, Ben Thanh Tourist, Fiditourist, Vietravel. Eden Travel was born late, starting from a low point, so competition will be extremely difficult.
- Furthermore, opening the Vietnamese tourism market for foreign investment makes the competitive pressure even more intense.
- In terms of brand criteria:
+ 10 travel brands in Ho Chi Minh City that are most known to customers: 12 (1) Saigontourist; (2) Vietravel; (3) Ben Thanh; (4) Fiditour; (5) Festival;
(6) Cho Lon; (7) Young Generation; (8) Perfect; (9) Vietnamese Fire; (10) Vietnamese Culture.

Specifically, there are companies such as Freeview, Quang Viet, Dai Thanh, which are businesses with a large number of card openings at the Branch, contributing to the increase in card service fees [25].

Comment : For the domestic tourist market in 2006, Saigontourist was the company with the largest market share (accounting for 44% of the total market of the four companies Saigontourist, Vietravel, Fiditour and Eden Travel). Next was Vietravel with 39% and lower was Fiditour with only 16%, Eden Travel had the smallest market share. However, this ratio changed in 2007 when Vietravel had the highest ratio, reaching 44% and Eden Travel increased its market share significantly compared to other competitors, from 1% in 2006 to 3% in 2007.
2.3.1.8 Suppliers .
For tourism products in particular, the supplier factor is extremely important to the quality of the company's services and products. Particularly for tourism products (tours), the consumption process takes place simultaneously with the product creation process. The elements that make up a package tour are relatively diverse, sensitive and difficult to control. The main suppliers include:
- Accommodation service providers ( Hotels - Resorts ) :
According to incomplete statistics, the country currently has 8,556 hotels ranked 3-5 stars with 170,551 rooms; of which there are 94 hotels ranked 4-5 stars with 15,967 rooms. While Vietnam needs to have over 250,000 hotel rooms by 2010, this sector is currently lacking and weak. The number of international visitors in recent years has grown well while accommodation facilities have not been able to be built in time, thus failing to meet customer demand, especially during peak season.
On the other hand, the quality of accommodation services at tourist destinations is also uneven. If in localities such as Ho Chi Minh City, Nha Trang, Phan Thiet, Hue, Da Lat, Hoi An... hotels and resorts with standards of 3 stars or higher create satisfaction for tourists, on the contrary, in other cities such as Hanoi, Ha Long, Can Tho..., the provinces of the southwestern region and the Central Highlands do not meet uniform standards and do not satisfy tourists.
- Food and beverage service provider :
The system of restaurants serving tourists nationwide is currently developing quite strongly along with the increase in the number of tourists. However, in terms of quality standards, infrastructure, and food hygiene and safety, it is not really stable, which partly affects the overall quality of a package tour. In particular, during peak periods, the situation of restaurant overload occurs similarly to that of hotels, inevitably leading to the consequence of not meeting enough demand and the quality of service being reduced.
Dependence on the quality of restaurant service is an inherent problem, travel companies in general are very dependent and passive in managing this supply source. Currently, the company has signed cooperation agreements with more than 200 restaurants nationwide to serve customers.
- Source of transportation services :
Most travel companies like Eden Travel mainly use the means of transport of specialized transport companies, and rarely invest in their own units, so the company is passive in using this service. The reason for not investing is that the management of these means of transport is inconvenient and ineffective.
