Vietnam has recorded major progress in tobacco harm prevention and the promotion of smoke-free environments in recent years, contributing to community health protection and fulfilling its commitments under the World Health Organisation (WHO) Framework Convention on Tobacco Control.

Amid the increasing use of tobacco, especially e-cigarettes, Vietnam has rolled out measures to minimise tobacco harms.

Ho Chi Minh City is focusing on building unique tourism products to optimise its resources for the development of the smoke-free industry in the post-pandemic period.

The Vietnamese health ministry along with the World Health Organization (WHO) office in Vietnam on April 3 launched a campaign to encourage smoke-free restaurants and hotels in Hanoi.

VOV.VN - A communication campaign was launched on December 26 in an effort to raise awareness among young people in Vietnam about the harmful effects of consuming tobacco and e-cigarettes.
