During the meeting, the Union minister
expressed gratitude to the government of the People’s Republic of China for
including Myanmar on the list of countries permitting Chinese tourists to
travel in organized groups.
In her address, Dr Thet Thet Khine
also touched upon the issue of online fraud, revealing that joint security
efforts between the two nations had resulted in arrests and suppression of
fraudulent activities. She emphasized the ministry’s commitment to addressing
fake news and collaborating closely with the Chinese news agencies to
disseminate accurate information. Additionally, the Union minister encouraged
tourists to share their genuine experiences during their trip.
Highlighting Myanmar’s rich tourism
potential, the Union minister promoted 14 must-visit travel destinations for
tourists. She extended her best wishes for a delightful and pleasant journey to
the visiting Chinese tourists.
The leader of the Chinese travel
group, Mr Dao Chengfu, shared his motivation for organizing the trip, stating
