Because of its clear intention to attract more visitors, Burma has taken specific steps regarding visa<\/a> procedures for Chinese<\/a> tourists<\/a>. <\/span>The approach is very standard: a tourist visa granted for 28 days, with the details of planned trips.<\/span><\/span> While this approach is no more cumbersome than for other destinations, it is nevertheless much more complex than Vietnam or Thailand, which have simply exempted Chinese tourists<\/a> from visa for 72 hours on tour. <\/span>Indeed, other countries are putting in place strong actions of seduction towards the Chinese tourists<\/a>.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Other destinations less known, less geographically close or less emblematic than Vietnam and Thailand have been able to deploy effective communication campaigns towards Chinese customers. <\/span>An example that may seem far-fetched but is actually very relevant: the success of the Bulgarian village Momchilovtsi.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This village has benefited from an opportunistic Chinese<\/a> industrialist who has marketed in China a yoghurt<\/a> under the name of the same name, supposed to contain the milk bacterium deemed capable of extending the life of the consumer. <\/span>Proof in support: the village holds the record of century-old inhabitants of the country! <\/span>Whether adhering to the theory or not, Momchilovtsi yogurt enjoys good publicity in China and organized tours have already been put in place to allow Chinese tourists to breathe the fresh air of the Bulgarian mountain while enjoying the <\/span>traditional yoghurt prepared by the local village.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

To sum up: Burma must find its opportunity to attract Chinese tourists.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
