Binh also added that the Vietnam Tourism Association and its partners will continue to collect opinions of people and media to perfect the website becoming the Vietnam's online tourism portal.
The association also launched the Vietnam’s most attractive destinations in 2015 Award on the website www.tripi.vn in order to honour favourite outstanding places. 
The results are based on votes by tourism journalists and the public on the website, and by the evaluation of professional board of the association. 
The organising board will reveal the winners of the award at the opening ceremony of the VITM 2016 on April 13. The VITM 2016, themed “Vietnam – The paradise of sea and island tourism” will be organised in Hanoi from April 14-17.
