According to experts, although the COVID-19 epidemic caused a lot of damage and profound impacts on the economy, the development prospects of the Hospitality major in our country will remain positive in the long term.

Due to the continuous improvement in infrastructure, preferential visa policy, and the orientation to promote service development to become a leading one, the Hospitality major still operates constantly.

Thanks to the joint efforts to prevent the epidemic, Vietnam is known to the world as one of the most successful countries with effective approaches to adapt to the pandemic.
