Vietnamese tourists show a preference for sightseeing and family vacations. 53% of Vietnamese tourists prefer natural scenery, 52% want to have more trips to spend quality time with family, and 40% want to travel more cautiously.

In other words, Vietnamese tourists have the highest interest in sustainable tourism in the Asia-Pacific region.

Most Vietnamese tourists tend to choose to visit beaches and islands (61%), big cities (60%), or engage in physical activities and sports (45%) during their trips.

The report states that for most travelers, financial status is the biggest concern, along with health, medical risks, and other travel disruptions. On the other hand, the report also shows that in order to save travel costs, 44% of travelers choose to go in off-peak months, 43% take advantage of loyalty programs to offset costs, and 28% opt for less expensive means of transportation.

His research group has demonstrated a phenomenon called quantum teleportation, which makes it possible to move a quantum state from one particle to one at a distance. For Anders Irbäck, Chair of the Nobel Committee for Physics, “It has become increasingly clear that a new kind of quantum technology is emerging. We can see that the laureates’ work with entangled states is of great importance, even beyond the fundamental questions about the interpretation of quantum mechanics“. Together with Anton Zeilinger, John Clauser and Alain Aspect were also awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics 2022 “for experiments with entangled photons, establishing the violation of Bell inequalities and pioneering quantum information science“.
