However, Ca Mau tourism is facing difficulties because currently the province only has one tourism unit managed by a state-owned enterprise, while most others are privately owned and invested in by businesses. There are over 20 community tourism destinations, but only a few have been officially recognized. In the future, the Department will coordinate with businesses, households involved in tourism, and local authorities to provide professional guidance, change mindsets, and improve methods in developing and promoting tourism products. We will prepare resources to upgrade and invest in innovative tourism products to attract more tourists.”

Ca Mau has many advantages for development; we need to maximize our unique potential and outstanding opportunities to contribute to the province's growth in 2025 reaching 8% or more. To achieve this, each level and sector must implement decisive, breakthrough solutions with high feasibility, striving with the highest political determination to achieve the set growth rate. In particular, economic development must be linked to restructuring the economy and innovating the growth model. All levels and sectors need to focus on improving competitiveness, promoting the digital economy, green economy, circular economy, and e-commerce.
