Vietnam among the friendliest countries on Earth

Vietnam has ranked ninth among the ten friendliest countries in the world, the World Population Review quoted a survey conducted by InterNations.

The ranks in this survey change dramatically within a few years as many factors can greatly affect a country’s attitude towards foreign travelers or expats.

A friendly attitude with a positive view on strangers and people of other cultures has helped Vietnam to reach the top ten. Portugal topped the list.

Experts believe that this rank will become one of the favourable factors for tourists to choose Vietnam for their post-COVID-19 experience, thus helping the country’s non-smoke industry revive./.
