The tourism industry has generated revenue of VND 4,538.6 billion (over US $180 million), an increase of 9.64% compared to the same period in 2022. Vice Chairman of Hoi An city People’s Committee, Nguyen Van Lanh, believes that the removal of entry and exit barriers for international visitors has contributed to this success.
