Sharing is caring!

We are delighted to announce that ASSET-H&C has been recognized as Mekong Innovation in Sustainable Tourism (MIST).

The MIST program acknowledges innovative initiatives and projects that drive sustainability and resilience in travel and tourism in the Greater Mekong Subregion. The program, launched by the Asian Development Bank and the Mekong Tourism Coordinating Office, is operated by Destination Mekong.

The competition involved a selection by a jury, a pitch session during Mekong World Tourism Day Forum, and a public vote.

The 3 winners – ASSET-H&C for the Project track, Yindii for the Launch track and Doh Eain for the Growth track  – were announced on 22 October during the 2021 Destination Mekong Summit.

Thank you again to all the people who supported ASSET-H&C during the competition by voting for us. We are proud to see our work and that of our members being acknowledged through the program.
