On December 3, to promote the exchange of visitors between the two countries Vietnam and Indonesia, a conference on tourism between Vietnam and Indonesia was held by Vietnam National Administration of Tourism.
The event drew participations of tour companies, hotels, over 10 enterprises, Indonesia's media which are exploring destinations in Vietnam.
With nearly 250 million people, the proportion of the population belonging to the middle class and their needs to travel abroad are increasing.
Indonesia has become a potential market with an important source of tourist arrivals to Vietnam .
In 2013, roughly 8 million Indonesians traveling overseas including 88.6% of those travelled to Asia - Pacific, while the number of Indonesian visitors to Vietnam was just over 70 thousand travellers.
Cooperation between Vietnam ‘s tourism enterprises and Indonesia’s tourism enterprises is not really effective and continuous due to lacks of promoting tourist attractions, tourism products, and disadvantaged transportation.

Vietnam has tourism products, attractive destinations, growing up-graded technical infrastructure to ensure tourists’needs.
However, air connectivity between the two countries are strengthening and consolidating with more daily direct flight routes.
In the coming time, the two nations should pay more attention to the introducing market, promoting tourism; supporting each other in participating into tourism events, and the tourism fairs to showcase products; providing information about the country and people with potential tourists and to businesses and investors.
