Several years ago, the ideas were often canceled during the holidays, but this year neither side has a surplus ”, said Mr. Tan. A high-speed train agent in Ha Tien said that in Ganh Dau (Phu Quoc) has just opened an entertainment venue, leading to increased demand from tourists. Ms. Thuy Ha (living ward 7, Soc Trang city, Soc Trang province) said that even in the West, none of her family members went to Phu Quoc because the children went to school and her husband worked. Taking advantage of the long holiday, she and her husband and 2 children and father, mother-in-law went to the pearl island to rest. “I have an acquaintance with the train ticket agent in Rach Gia but I contacted for 2 days to get a ticket to Phu Quoc”, Ms. Ha said. The reason is that Ha’s family booked late tickets. The border guards checked the information of passengers on the high-speed train to the islands of Kien Giang province on April 28.
