- There were many guests of the world famous Ha Long Bay and this is an advantage in tourism. Quang Ninh has nothing to further measures to promote the advantages of this?

- Mr. Ha Quang Long: We have had experience with VIP, need special attention the problem: to ensure absolute security for VIPs this is very keen, if not better by easily leadthe kidnapping, ransom; the promotion, access must be limited, to avoid noise, affecting privacy and their security. When Mr. Mark Zuckerberg to Ha Long, I take the ship out flowers and thank you for choosing Ha Long for vacation, but do not take pictures and they are very satisfied. Mark Zuckerberg also praised the beauty of Ha Long and services for groups. Actually, VIPs are not picky as many people think. They do not require the facilities, what they need is to feel the difference where they come.
