On 27 June 2012, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism (MOCST) had
a writing sent to Hanoi People's Committee on the organization of 2013
International Tourism Exhibition (ITE) in Hanoi.

According to the draft scheme, the International Tourism Exhibition in Vietnam period 2013-2020 (ITE VIETNAM) will be hosted alternately in Hanoi in the odd years and Ho Chi Minh City in the even.
However, the decision was encountered by Ho Chi Minh Department of Culture, Sport and Tourism (HCMC DOCST).
Mr. La Quoc Khanh, Deputy Director HCMC DOCST said that with current facilities and experience, Hanoi can not organize this event successfully.
He also said that HCMC took 8 years to build the brand and ITE HCMC has long been associated with HCMC tourism.
It's hard to keep relationship with partners and made a series of well-organized operation to an international event if there is inconsistency on organizational units, so whether Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City to host ITE Vietnam in 2013 has not come to final decision.
This year, ITE HCMC 2012 with the theme "Four countries - One destination" will be held at Saigon Exhibition and Convention Center, District 7 from September 13 to 15.
Organizers expected to attract about 200 international tour operators from 30 countries and territories to meet with enterprises in the tourism, hotel industry... Last year there were 150 enterprises participating in ITE 2011.
Also in this event, the mayors of the city in the sub-region Mekong expansion including Phnom Penh (Cambodia), Vientaine (Laos), Yangon (Myanmar), Kunming (China), Bangkok (Thailand) , HCMC, and the two associated cities - Jeju & Busan of Korea will meet in Ho Chi Minh City to discuss the joint development of tourism, strengthen product and promote youth tourism.
