On 1st November 2017, through close coordination with Ministry of Tourism of Cambodia (MoT), ASEAN-China Centre (ACC) held Tourism Seminar on China-Ready in Phnom Penh. H.E. Mme. Yang Xiuping, Secretary-General of ACC, and H.E. Mr. TITH Chantha, Secretary of State of MoT, were invited to attend the opening ceremony and deliver remarks.
H.E. Mme. Yang Xiuping said that tourism cooperation was one of the priorities of ACC. Encompassing the 50th Anniversary of ASEAN and the ASEAN-China Year of Tourism Cooperation, ACC is working on 19 flagship projects involving a rich variety of activities, Among which, there were a series of tourism activities, including translating and publishing ASEAN tourism promotion materials into Chinese, organizing the ASEAN-China Quality and Sustainable Tourism Development Conference and ASEAN Tourism Photo Exhibition, supporting the establishment of ASEAN-China Tourism Education Alliance, working with Beijing Television Station on the Tourism Documentary Shooting Project “Hi! ASEAN” in 10 ASEAN countries, co-organizing ASEAN-China Tourism Festival. All of these activities have achieved fruitful results and gained positive feedbacks from relevant sectors in ASEAN and China. In order to help ASEAN countries better understand the development of Chinese tourism industry and outbound tourism market, attract more Chinese tourists, ACC collaborated with top-ranking tourism universities in China and held eight workshops in ASEAN countries, namely Brunei, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Malaysia, the Philippines and Viet Nam. She strongly believed that these seminars would make new contributions to expand Chinese tourism market for Cambodia, promote Cambodia-China and ASEAN-China relations, and promote the mutual understanding between people from both sides.
H.E. Mr. TITH Chantha expressed his gratitude to ACC for organizing tourism seminar in Cambodia on behalf of MoT, and briefed on the circumstances of Cambodian tourism development, especially Chinese tourists to Cambodia. He said that Cambodia-China relations are friendly. Tourism and other fields have fruitful exchanges and cooperation. Tourism is one of the main pillar industries in Cambodia and plays a vital role in promoting economic and social development. The seminar provided a very useful platform for Cambodian tourism industries to better understand Chinese outbound tourism situation and the need and habit of Chinese tourists, which would help to further enhance the quality and standard of serving Chinese tourists and attract more Chinese tourist. MoT expected to continue to maintain close ties with ACC and expected ACC to continue to provide positive support and assistance to the development of Cambodian tourism industry.
