What is the MTCO

Mekong Tourism Coordinating Office (MTCO)
 
The Mekong Tourism Coordinating Office (MTCO), located in Bangkok, Thailand, was set up with seed funding from the GMS Tourism Working Group which represents the six national governments in the Greater Mekong Sub-region. The MTCO has two primary functions:-
 
1) Development – To co-ordinate sustainable pro-poor tourism development projects in the Mekong in line with the United Nations Millennium Development Goals, and
 
2) Marketing – To promote the Mekong region as a single travel and tourism destination.
 
This is the MTCO’s industry Web site, which is aimed at industry, government and educational personnel interested in tourism to the Mekong region. The marketing website – ExploreMekong.org – is for consumers and travel agents seeking travel-specific information and ideas about visiting the Mekong region.
