Da Nang Locals and their Roles as Tourism Ambassadors
Recently, a user posted on Facebook that while sending a courier from Hanoi to Da Nang, a postman in Da Nang lost an envelope of 30 passports. Immediately after the article was posted, many people, associations, and groups spread the information with the hope that the person would soon find the passports. Fortunately, after only a few hours, the passports were found. The fact that hundreds of people joined hands to spread the information shows the enthusiasm of Da Nang people and the safety of Da Nang.
Previously, a foreign male tourist had a health problem while having dinner at a restaurant in Da Nang. Fortunately, he was timely helped by a female tourist at the restaurant, who turned out to be medical staff. Immediately afterward, Da Nang Department of Tourism sent a thank you letter and awarded a certificate of merit to the female tourist for not only saving the other tourists but also helping to promote the beautiful image of Vietnam, particularly Da Nang.
