Title: Reviving Travel: the recovery of Vietnam\u2019s tourism industry following strict Covid-19 policies<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Topic: For the past decade, Vietnam has experienced impressive growth as a tourist destination. However, with the outbreak of covid-19, the country instituted some of the most effective, albeit strict, policies to contain the spread of the virus. Though this kept cases down, it also led to extensive restrictions on trade, which was a massive blow to the national tourism industry. Now, with covid-19 restrictions lifted, tourism in Vietnam has a chance to return to, if not surpass, pre-pandemic levels. We will be analyzing the impact of Vietnam\u2019s governmental policies surrounding covid, both for the individual industry and the national economy as a whole. We will then examine the measures that the country has put in place in 2022-2023 in an attempt to restore the prosperity of the tourism industry and economy pre-covid, and how they impact the future of the industry.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

Analysis<\/p>\n

Class concepts<\/div>\n
Vietnam is essentially split between capitalism (individualism) and communism (collectivism)<\/div>\n
The economy is essentially capitalist, but the government is still in many ways communist<\/div>\n
The Doi Moi policies moved its economy out of communism, but not its government<\/div>\n
Spurred the intense growth of the tourism industry and economy as a whole<\/div>\n
The more communist nature of the government allowed for a more efficient and coordinated Covid effort<\/div>\n
It also allowed the government to impose more strict restrictions on businesses without much opportunity for opposition<\/div>\n
Sometimes benefitted other businesses which were more crucial \u2192 the government supported them<\/div>\n
Comparative analysis<\/div>\n
Changes in the tourism industries of countries with more lax policies when it comes to Covid (USA) \u2192 did they have it better or worse than Vietnam\u2019s industry ? Why ?<\/div>\n
How does Vietnam\u2019s tourism industry as a whole compare to those of other countries ?<\/div>\n
\u2018Emerging\u2019 \u2192 still seen as a relatively \u2018new\u2019 or \u2018hip\u2019 place to travel<\/div>\n
H-O theory (?) \u2192 has unique history, nature, etc that appeal to tourists<\/div>\n
Cheap, due to its status as a developing country \u2192 once again appeals to younger travelers and people just traveling on a budget<\/div>\n
Winners and losers<\/div>\n
Winners : the \u2018majority\u2019 of Vietnam\u2019s economy, as seen by the growth even during the worst year of the pandemic, perhaps the government, the average citizens, healthcare industry<\/div>\n
Controlled the spread effectively, no crisis or shortage of medical supplies like in the US<\/div>\n
Losers : the tourism industry, both as a result of the pandemic itself but also as a result of the policies of the government<\/div>\n
Didn\u2019t even give them a chance to earn profit by cutting off all international travelers<\/div>\n
Interactions with primary sources of tourists<\/div>\n
How can Vietnam incentivize people from these locations to come back ?<\/div>\n
Economic agreements<\/div>\n
ASEAN tourism \u2192 prosperity of the region will bring prosperity to all<\/div>\n
Easy travel between the nations \u2192 could be a potential advertising point to make a trip out of the region<\/div>\n
