Thong Khon, Cambodia 's Tourism
Minister stated that this event draws more effort to strengthen the good
relationship between Vietnam and Cambodia in tourism sector. By opening a
representative office in Ho Chi Minh City, NagaWorld will provide six trips a
day from HCM City to Phnom Penh and vice-versa by twenty 28-seat luxury buses
(video, massage seats, toilets) at an investment value of US$3 million. In the
future, the company will extend the bus service to Siem Reap province, home to
Preah Sihanouk coastal province, and Angkor Wat temples with the hope of
attracting more tourists to these popular sites.
NagaWorld also launched a three
day-two night Free & Easy Tour for just 125 USD a person, which includes
luxury bus transportation from HCM City and back, accommodation at the
five-star NagaWorld Hotel in Phnom Penh, six meals and a half-day city tour.
According to the Cambodian
tourism minister, in 2011, the Vietnamese tourists were ranked at the top list
of foreign visitors to Cambodia last year with 600,000. For the first three
months of 2012, almost 180,000 Vietnamese visited Cambodia. The two countries
now have eight border checkpoints on land and two on water, indicating that the
two neighboring countries have reached a cross-border transportation agreement
under which 19 companies are operating 39 trips with 300 buses that travel to
and from HCM City to Phnom Penh every day.
