Recently, in Bai Chay ward - a key tourist area of Quang Ninh province - there have been continuous incidents related to the prices of food and beverage services, including some cases that have been reported by tourists on social networks, affecting the tourism image of Bai Chay in particular and Quang Ninh in general.
Some cases have been administratively sanctioned by competent authorities.
In fact, the prices of services, especially food and beverage, in Bai Chay are always higher than the national average, so it is also a quite sensitive topic every time tourists post on social networks.
According to the representative of Bai Chay ward, in some cases, after checking, the restaurant owners were not wrong but the way they treated tourists was unreasonable, not fair, causing frustration for tourists.
A representative of the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism of Quang Ninh suggested that press agencies should provide multi-dimensional information, ask more authorities, local authorities, owners of food and beverage establishments, and services, instead of just posting information that tourists report on social networks.
The Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism of Quang Ninh province has also just sent an official dispatch to relevant departments, branches, localities and units requesting coordination to strengthen the management of the tourism business environment.
In particular, strengthen inspection and strict handling of phenomena of tourism businesses, tourism services, and points of sale that do not list prices or have listed prices but are not clear and transparent; there are fraudulent acts.
Pay special attention to the issue of linking service establishments with organizations and individuals operating electric vehicles, taxis... to force customers, making illegal profits.
Request the Provincial Police to support businesses to remove, prevent, and disable fake websites and fanpages of tourism businesses to defraud and profit tourists; investigate and handle criminals according to regulations.
