My name is Quynh, I’m 38 years old and I’m the director of Lao Cai Travel and Tourism I have been in this position for years - Jane Ferguson: OK! Tell us what you think! - Quynh: Where I want to implement my idea is Sapa Sapa is a very attractive tourist destination, bearing the beauty of Europe because this is the only place in Vietnam with snow, also has 3.134 meter high Fanxipan peak is the roof of Indochina Sapa owns a series of scenic spots such as: O Quy Ho Peak, Love waterfall, ancient rock, Muong Hoa valley, Coc San cave and many typical dishes of North West Moreover, Sapa is also the top three places that must be visited by foreigners when coming to Vietnam This is a chart about the number of visitors to Sapa over the years By 2015, there were 710 thousand visitors, 2016 has increased to 970 thousand, in 2017 this number has increased to 1.2 million visitors This shows that Sapa is a very attractive tourist destination and increasingly attracts tourists 1200 1000 800 1200 600 970 710 400 200 2015 2016 Unit: thousands people 2017 THE NUMBER OF VISITORS TO SAPA BUSSINESS ENGLISH Page GROUP 4: A NEW ATTRACTION However, there is a shortage of accommodation for tourists The chart shows the shortage of accommodation in Sapa In 2017, 2182 guests / room for hotel from stars and up and 4000 guests / room for 4-5 star hotel Therefore, in the peak season, Sapa faces severe room burns MISCONCEPTION OF RESOURCE SUPPLY 4-5 stars stars or more Unit of calculation: number of guests / room There are only a few quality hotels like Violet, Victoria, Royal the rest are homestay, poor quality homestay So, I want to build a resort with a large scale, meet international standard stars, there are about 300 rooms with services, modern facilities to bring tourists the most comfortable when coming to Sapa, solving difficulties that Sapa is facing - Dilip Singh: Thank you for your presentation Will the project be good when we need a long time to complete it? At that time whether tourism in Sapa is still growing? - Quynh: I believe tourism in Sapa will grow at a high speed - Dilip Singh: What are you based on? - Quynh: There are three reasons for me to believe in tourism in Sapa that will develop hnw in the near future Firstly, the infrastructure for tourism in Sapa is improving Noi Bai-Lao Cai Expressway has been completed, by 2020, Lao Cai airport will be put into operation will shorten the time to Sapa When the Fanxipan Legend cable car system opens up to Fanxipan peak, it only takes 15 minutes Secondly, Sapa has many beautiful and attractive landscapes, typical of the region as I have just described BUSSINESS ENGLISH Page GROUP 4: A NEW ATTRACTION And finally, it is the friendliness, hospitality of the people here They are willing to help visitors in difficult times as well as enthusiastically introduce the custom and unique features in their activities to visitors - Tuyen: It's good! How much money you need to carry out your project? -Quynh: I need $ 18 million to carry out my project Hope to get the support from Mr Dilip Singh - Tuyen: Thanks for joining Quynh, we will announce the results soon to you  The presentation of CEO of Khanh Hoa Tourism company Hello Mr Dilip Singh and everyone, my name is Tu, the deputy head of Khanh Hoa tourism investment and also the representative of Truong Sa group of islands I appreciate Mr Singh and your assistant spending your valuable time listening to my opinion about where you can invest I guarantee that you will find this is such a potential investment The group of islands Truong Sa which belongs to Khanh Hoa Province, Vietnam are where I expect your investment As we can see Khanh Hoa is also a beautiful landscape and that is why you should put money to this investment My presentation includes three parts: Part 1: Group of islands Truong Sa introduction Part 2: Why need to invest to Truong Sa ? Part 3: How to invest to Truong Sa ? Now,we can start going to the first part- introduce about to Truong Sa The group of islands Truong Sa lies to the east and southeast coast of Vietnam, is based on the entire South China Sea Spratly Islands They are a collection of over a hundred small islands, reefs formed from coral shoals, undergrowth and cover an area of about 198000 km² It is divided into groups: Song Tử, Loai Ta, Thi Tứ, Nam Yết, Sinh Tồn, Trường Sa, Thám Hiểm and Bình Nguyên Next, why we would like to invest to Truong Sa - Fistly, as we all know, to go to Truong Sa Island must be by boat, so it takes time and cost is very high So I want to call for investment to build a civilian airline route to the island to save costs and promote tourism - Secondly, this island lack of facilities so we should invest in building more restaurants, high quality hotels to meet the needs of visitors - Finally, I think we should invest in building more schools, hospitals, water filter system and policies to support people living in the island The result is both improve the life for the people and raise the national sovereignty I believe that Truong Sa islands not only will be the popular travel destination with new BUSSINESS ENGLISH Page GROUP 4: A NEW ATTRACTION attractive points but also be a smart choice if you decided to invest to Truong Sa potential development This chart shows the revenue of Truong Sa Island The revenue of Truong Sa in 2015 was 0.5 trillion VND, but 2017 it has increased to million VND The growth is increasing so speed.G SA ISLANDS 0.9 0.8 0.7 0.6 0.5 0.7 0.4 0.5 0.3 0.2 Unit: trillion VND 0.1 2015 2016 2017 THE REVENUE OF TRUONG SA ISLANDS Thank you Mr Dilip Singh and everyone listening to my presentation and I hope the project will be chosen  MC Thank you!
