Due to the impact of the Covid-19 epidemic, many organizations and individuals operating in tourism services closed down, tour guides and employees had to quit their jobs and switch to other professions, leading to a shortage of human resources. service force when the tourism industry resumes, especially staff with expertise and training in tourism.

Tourism enterprises operate in small and fragmented areas; There is no coordination, no real investment strategy, promoting the potential of tourism products and contributing resources to socialization for tourism development of the province. Propaganda about business awareness to the people is still limited; cultural strengths have not yet developed into tourism products; there are no entertainment spots, high-class shopping places to serve tourists; Human resources for tourism have increased but are still low and the quality has not met the demand
