GENERAL INTRODUCTION
Tourism – a smokeless industry can bring large revenues, and high profit in
which many regions of countries in the world desire to invest . However, not all of
them can manage to do a sustainable tourism betterly , since it requires in
develpoment many different factors of geographical location, nature, policy,
history, and human resource as well . Among these, “Geographical location” ,
which is up to now considered as the top decisive in tourism competition , is
belonged to Ba Ria – Vung Tau of Vietnam .
Vietnam is a country of natural advantages for tourism development
stretching beach from the north to the south. Among regions in Vietnam, Ba Ria –
Vung Tau (BR-VT) is one of the most wonderful location for tourism with more
advantages than any other regions; however, the exploitation and development of
tourism are spontaneous without right planning, orientation compared to its own
potential in recent . This can be blamed for the state tourism management agency as
Ministry of Tourism and Culture,Sports of BR-VT.
Basing on the theoretical backgrounds about strategy management perceived
during the course at Griggs University, we carry out a research on the topic:
“Tourism Development Strategy of Ba Ria –Vung Tau in the period 2010-2020.”
This assignment aims at helping Ministry of Tourism and Culture,Sports of BRVT. to implement the state management of local tourism and to propose practical
solutions summed up from the theory and practice to strengthen the rapid, rightscale and sustainable development of tourism in the province period 2010-2020.
-Our suggested approach: The group is comprised of 5 members on the basis
of agreeing on the opinion, objectives of the topic, assigned responsibility to
members to complete and assignment and to report it in front of the University
Council.
- The assignment includes three chapters as follows:

Chapter 1
THEORETICAL BASIS
1.1/ Theories about strategy management and basic studied arguments:
1.1.1/ Definition of strategy management:
Currently, there are various statements about the definition of strategy
management; however, the content is to achieve the long-term objective for a
subject (organization). According to Fredr David, strategy management is defined
as follows: “Strategy management can be defined as an art and science to establish,
implement and evaluate the decisions related to various functions enabling an
organization to achieve a proposed objective.” 1
The process of strategy management is comprised of three stages:
+ Stage 1: Establishment of strategy includes the development of tasks,
identification of external opportunities and risks faced by the organization, pointing
out of internal strength and weakness, development of long-term objectives,
proposal of alternative strategies, and selection of specific strategies for pursuing.
+ Stage 2: Implementation of strategy refers to the fact that the organization
must set annual objectives, stimulate the policies, encourage the personnel, and
distribute the resources to enable the implementation of the strategy.
Implementation of strategy includes the development of a culture supporting the
strategy to establish an effective organizational structure, to re-orient the activities,
to prepare the budget, to develop and employ information system, and to provide
motive for personnel to achieve efficient performance.
+ Stage 3: Evaluation of Strategy is to monitor and comment the results of
the strategy establishment and implementation. This also includes the measurement
and determination of achievements obtained by individuals and organization, and
the proposal of adjustment, if necessary.
Strategy management is a process of human to achieve success. Humans here
mean the managers of all levels and the people implementing the strategies.
1 The Definition of Strategy Management Book by Fredr David is translated by Truong Cong Minh, Tran
Tuan Thac, Tran Thi Tuong Nhu; and issued by the Statistics Publisher.

1.1.2/ Theoretical basics related to strategy management:
In strategy management, a circumstance may have various solutions, options,
and actions. The task of manager is to select the best strategy from the set of
potential strategies to make implementing decision.
A good decision will lead to success, making the organization more and
more develop. On the contrary, a wrong decision will lead to failure.
According the above understanding, an organization has different types of
Strategy Management in different periods: general strategy management of the
whole organization (sector, business, etc); specific strategy management of
functional divisions (production, marketing, human resource, finance, etc.)
Specific strategies are specific solutions, actions of divisions those are
selected basing on the requirements of the general strategies.
1.1.3/ The factors affecting the strategy selection and decision making:
To select a good and right strategy, the manager can not only base on the
experience, since he may be too subjective leading to mistake, especially when the
management is carried out on the large scale and in complicated manner.
Therefore, it is necessary to develop scientific basis for the strategy selection.
First of all, the factors with direct influence on the strategy selection and decision
making must be considered.
There are two main factors as follows:
- Quality factors.
- Quantity factors.
Quality factors always play the top important roles. They are expressed
through the objectives, tasks of the organization. These objectives may vary by
time.
The objectives of an organization may be reflected through the level of
striving by period, the output, the productivity, the modernism, and the stand in the
market.
Once the objectives are defined or stabilized, quantity factors become
significant to select the strategy and decide the implementation. These are theGroup 5 - Class: GaMBA01.C03 Capstone project report
MBA program Tourism development strategy of BaRia 4 -VungTau
criteria to compare the strategic methods and to select the optimum strategy as the
strategies with the most effective indicators.
In general, the objectives must be firstly identified as for the selection of
appropriate strategy to achieve such objectives. The things to be implemented to
achieve the objectives are the contents of the strategy, which is expressed in the
form of the decision issued by the competent level.
1.1.4/ Introduction of matrixes for building strategy :
 SWOT MATRIX : SWOT matrix combines external and internal factors to
form SO, ST, WO, WT strategic methods. SWOT analysis is one of the effective skills
that helps us to improve the deciding ability; technical analysis helps us to identify
strengths , weaknesses to find out opportunities and threats .
SWOT matrix includes 4 main factors:
- Strength (S = Strengths) is advantages of the sector.
- Weakness (W = Weaknesses) is the weak points of the sector.
- Opportunity (O = Opportunities) is the possibilities of the sector.
- Threat: (T = Threats) is the risks faced by the sector.
The establishment of SWOT matrix includes 8 basic steps :
- Step 1: List of main opportunities.
- Step 2: List of main external threats.
- Step 3: List of main strengths.
- Step 4: List of main internal weaknesses.
- Step 5: a combination of internal strength and external opportunity and
appropriate SO methods. This strategy makes use of its strength to take
advantage of opportunity.
- Step 6: a combination of internal weakness and external opportunity and
proposal of proper WO strategic method. This strategy overcomes weakness by
making use of opportunity.
- Step 7: a combination of internal strength and external threat and proposal of
proper ST.

MBA program Tourism development strategy of BaRia 5 -VungTau
- Step 8: a combination of internal weakness and external threats and proposal of
WT strategy. This strategy aims at mitigating the impact of weakness and
preventing the external threats.
 MATRIX OF EFE AND MATRIX OF IFE are for evaluating the
external and internal environment factors of a situation event .
There are 5 steps to do with EFE and IFE :
- Step 1: List the determined factors of tourism .
- Step2: Identify important factors from the 0,0 (unimportant) to 1,0 (very
important). Total of important level of theses factors must be1,0.
- Step 3: Confirm weigh index from 1 to 4 of each factor in the relationship with
strategy reaction of tourism, including the 4th is best response, 3rd is over average,
2nd is average and 1 is under average .
- Step 4: Score each extra factor by multiplying for the important level of the factor
with its weigh index.
- Step 5: Add the total with whole list of factors. If the total at 2,5 is average, the
best result is 4 and 1 is under average.
 MATRIX OF COMPETITION (CPM) is to compare image and
competition with other trade brands in the same field.
To establish a matrix of competition through some typical basic norms for
classification. The whole list of norm shows a result to compare with other trade
brands and identifies an exact area of trading of an organisation. Besides, managers
could rearrange or adjust for better trading and sustainable trading situation .
1.2/ Definitions of tourism:
1.2.1/ Definition of tourism:
Article 4 of Vietnam’s tourism law says: “Tourism is the activities related to
the human trips out of the regular residential location to meet the demand for
visiting, studying, entertainment, relaxation for a specific period of time. TourismGroup 5 - Class: GaMBA01.C03 Capstone project report
MBA program Tourism development strategy of BaRia 6 -VungTau
activity is the activity of tourists, tourism organizations, community and individuals,
organizations releated to tourism”. 2
Therefore, tourism is an activity of various characteristics including various
participants to make a rich population. Tourism activity carries the characteristics of
the economics and the culture – society. Actually, tourism activities bring not only
economic benefits but also political, cultural, and social benefits, etc.
1.2.2/ Tourism classification:
- Classification by area range: domestic and international travel.
- Classification by types of tourism: business travel; trade travel; excursion
travel; visiting travel; cultural travel; conference travel; and religious travel.
The classification of tourism is very important, helping us to exploit the tourism
advantage and potential, to identify the strength of tourism business agency in order to
determine customer structure, objective of tourism sites and create condition for the
best development of tourism sector.To plan strategy and solve problems of factors by
using matrix of IFE, EFE, SWOT, SPACE , etc that we present above .
1.2.3/ Tourism products:
1.2.3.1/ Definition:
Definition about tourism products must be clearly specified, especially in the
tourism sectors. Tourism product is an overall of factors, visible or invisible, but
helping to satisfy some specific demands of customers.
According to Kotler and Turner , a broad definition about tourism product as
follows: “A tourism product is all the things those may be supplied to the
possession, use or consumption of a market. It includes objects, achievements,
characters, places, organizations and ideas”. 3
1.2.3.2/ Characteristics of tourism product:
Above analysis enables us to consider tourism product as a special product
with following characteristics:

3 International encyclopedias on tourism
Ket-noi.com kho tai lieu mien phi Ket-noi.com kho tai lieu mien phiGroup 5 - Class: GaMBA01.C03 Capstone project report
MBA program Tourism development strategy of BaRia 7 -VungTau
- Collectiveness of tourism product.
- Unreserability.
- Immovability.
- Concurrency of production and consumption.
- Easy fluctuation.
Therefore, tourism product includes tourism services, commodities and
facilities supplied to tourists, which is established by combining natural factors,
technical facilities, and tourism labor in an area, a region. Tourism product is
comprised of tangible factors (commodities) and intangible factors (services) to
supply tourists or commodities, services and facilities serving tourists.
Tourism product = tourism resources + services + tourism commodities.
1.2.4/ Tourism resources:
1.2.4.1/ Definition:
Tourism resource is the basis for tourism resource. The research on tourism
resources is to study the factors those can stimulate tourism motives of tourists used
by the tourism sector to make economic profit and social benefit. We can
understand any natural, humanitarian, social factors, etc to attract visitors and
tourists can be commonly called as tourism resource. Tourism resource includes the
exploited resources and potential resources.
1.2.4.2/ Characteristics of tourism resource:
Through observation and analysis, the characteristics of tourism resource can
be overviewed as follows:
- Diversity: Tourism resource is a broad concept; therefore, the
environmental factors attractive to visitors can all constitute tourism resource. In
term of expression, tourism resource is diverse, which may be natural resource or
social, humanitarian resource, the past history or the current resource, the tangible
or intangible resource.
- Natural feature: Natural tourism resource is formed by the nature; while
historical culture is handed down by the history. Moreover, national tradition,Group 5 - Class: GaMBA01.C03 Capstone project report
MBA program Tourism development strategy of BaRia 8 -VungTau
custom are gradually constituted; modern architecture created by human beings to
get adapted to the development of the society and the economy.
1.2.5/ Sustainable tourism:
Sustainability is defined by the World’s Environmental Development
Committee as “the development meeting the current demand without reducing the
ability to meet the demands of future generations ". 4
The principles needed to be noticed during sustainable tourism development:
- Sustainable use of human resource.
- Reduction in excessive consumption and waste.
- Maintenance of diversity.
- Integration of tourism in the planning process.
1.3/ The applied theories about tourism development strategy:
1.3.1/ Role of tourism in the economic – social development:
The overall objective of the economic, social development of Vietnam in the
following year is “To push up the economic growth rate, to achieve the significant
shift in enhancing the effectiveness and sustainability of the development; to drive
our country out of low development and improve the material, cultural and
intellectual life of the people. To strengthen industrialization, modernization and
development of intellectual economy”.
Regarding service – tourism: “To develop the service sector rapidly in order
to meet the requirements and suit the huge potential of our country and the general
development trend of the world to create the outstanding development of the
service, making the regional service growth rate higher than GDP growth rate (7.7
– 8.2%/year)”. 5
1.3.2/ The necessity of development strategy management of BR-VT’s
tourism in the period of 2010 – 2020:
In reality, there are various points of view about tourism development
planning. Some people say that long-term planning is not necessary but to find out
positive solution and adjustment for any negative circumstances. In this case,

Ket-noi.com kho tai lieu mien phi Ket-noi.com kho tai lieu mien phiGroup 5 - Class: GaMBA01.C03 Capstone project report
MBA program Tourism development strategy of BaRia 9 -VungTau
tourism destinations may gain short-term profits rather than long-term effectiveness,
or they even shall have to bear serious consequences resulting from careless vision
about the long-term and sustainable steps in the future.
There is the opinion that planning task is only related to the arrangement of
territory space through the model of land use, construction architecture, space
architecture, etc, and that planning only mentions the resource and technical factors
without concern about economic, social, environmental, legal factors, etc.
In the recent year, province locals in regions have paid more concern especially
about tourism planning with a necessity to establish huge orientation for
sustainable tourism development. Planning task becomes one of important
functions of the state management of all levels.
It is necessary to implement the planned tourism development, since any
tourism destination has gone through 4 basic stages of a process including:
formation; development; saturation; and regression. This shows that any tourism
destinations have living cycle and up or down development trend. Therefore, to
achieve long-term benefits, tourism destinations must find the way to lengthen their
living cycle and competitive advantage. This requires the forecast of changes and
the development of active actions to respond to such changes.
The practice has demonstrated that tourism development planning can bring
various benefits. Thanks to planning, we can establish the sustainable objectives and
find out the policies to develop positive solutions.
The approach to tourism development planning in the view of sustainable
development is very significant, since most tourism development depends on the
natural, environmental value, cultural value of the province. If the natural and
humanitarian resources are destroyed our degraded, the tourism destinations will not
attract tourist.
Today, as tourism becomes a key sector in the national economy and brings
huge benefits, the study about tourism planning and sustainable tourism development
are essential to BR-VT in particular and the country in general.Group 5 - Class: GaMBA01.C03 Capstone project report

development to promote such advantages. BR-VT has beautiful beach with yellow
sands as an ideal bathing and relaxation site for visitors.
However, in some places, natural resources are exploited uncontrollably
without conservation and embellishment of environmental landscape, green plants
and lawns. The reduction of forest and non-connection of the forest environment
with the sea also imposes huge impact on the forest ecology.
The exploitation of sand, stones in some mountains, mountain edges is of
great concern for the sustainable development in general and tourism sustainable
development in particular. Forest resources are degraded, especially the tropical
resource along Ray River, con Dao National Forest, Binh Chau – Phuoc Buu
Ecological Forest, Nature Reserve…
BR-VT has two primeval forests including Binh Chau – Phuoc Buu Nature
Reserve located in the area of 11,392 ha and Con Dao National Forest in the area of
5,998 ha with more than 700 species of timbers, herbs and 200 species of animals10.
2.1.2.2/ Humanitarian resources:
BR-VT province is home to many recognized, revolutionary historical and
cultural relics (25 accredited and ranked relics). The majority of the revolutionary
relics, cultural relics have been embellished to educate tradition for young people
and meet the needs of tourist activities such as Con Dao Prison, Hang Duong
Cemetery, Vo Thi Sau Monument and Memorial Area, Binh Gia, Dinh Co Victory
Statues, Mr. Tran Nui Nua – Bach Dinh Temple, Lighthouse of Tao Phung
Mountain, Round House, Ba Ria, Dinh Mountain Base, Loc An Non-number
Wharf, Large Mountain Artillery (Tuong Ky), Small Mountain Artillery (Tao
Phung), Kim Long Tunnel, House of Mother Tam Nhung, Bau Sen Base, Hac Dich
Tunnel, Long Phuoc Tunnel, Minh Dam Resistance Base, Bau Thanh Cultural
Area… The religious establishments in the area are also beautiful architectural
works, and make the impression for visitors.

etc. Moreover, it is required to implement good state planning and management to
ensure no pollution caused to the water system.

road and 379 km of rural soil road,
