Vietnam tourism bounces back
The number of international tourists to Vietnam increased 34.2 per cent year-on-year in the first nine months of this year, according to the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism.

The number of South Koreans increased 29.4 per cent to 365,000; Japanese 18.7 per cent to 318,000 and American 2.4 per cent to 325,000.
Last year, international tourists to Vietnam decreased by 10 per cent year-on-year due to the economic crisis
