In February 2023, MTCO proudly launched its new website (www.mekongtourism.org). The revamped site features a fresh, modern design, enhanced navigability, and a host of new features, offering an enriched user experience for visitors.
We all gathered in Preah Sihanouk Province, Cambodia, from April 25 to 27 for the Mekong Tourism Forum 2023, themed 'Rethinking for Resilience and Digitalization.' The event successfully resonated with over 250 delegates from 19 countries and regions.
In September, we launched the Mekong Tourism Internship; which serves as an internship finder platform for students and recent graduates in the GMS member countries.
We also launched Mekong Voices, showcasing over 30 interviews with regional visionaries, offering fresh insights into sustainable tourism, women empowerment, and digital transformation. Additionally, Mekong Hidden Gems highlights lesser-known destinations, revealing under-explored areas poised for growth and connection.
Finally, we’re going strong with our #MemoriesinMekong social media campaign that showcases the region’s unforgettable flavors and adrenaline-pumping escapades. This was accompanied by the launch of our Mekong Stories Map – an interactive tool that helps travelers explore the region’s captivating cultural encounters to adrenaline-fueled adventures.
Together with our GMS Member Countries and industry stakeholders in the Mekong region, we are looking forward to what 2024 holds!
Regional spotlight: Meuang Feuang, Lao PDR
Renowned as the “Guilin of Lao PDR”, Meuang Feuang introduces visitors to a bustling life on the waters of the Nam Lik River. You’ll stay at a houseboat with unobstructed views of the natural landscape. And as the sun rises, Local Buddhist monks queue along the houseboats to receive alms, a local tradition known as “tak bat”. Scenery, culture, and nature: what’s not to love about Meuang Feuang?
