Through these activities, the Co To Special Zone aims to honour its cultural and historical heritage while promoting its image as a green, clean and beautiful island destination. The event is also expected to stimulate tourism demand, contribute to local socio-economic growth, and further build Co To into a more civilised, friendly and attractive destination.
