The meeting was organized by the Yunnan Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism, and the Yunnan Provincial People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries, and hosted by the Kunming branch of China Tourism Academy.


Aiming to promote inclusiveness and cooperation with mutual benefits as well as in-depth communication and 

practical cooperation pertaining to tourism in the Lancang-Mekong region, the meeting invited representatives from the tourism industry from Laos, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and Myanmar, as well as representatives from western China.


The meeting further facilitated resource sharing, common market expansion, information connectivity, and co-promotion of tourism routes between Yunnan and its neighboring countries, and furthermore enhanced practical cooperation of tourism in the region.


It is believed that the meeting will build the Lancang-Mekong region into a characteristic, energetic and internationally renowned tourist area.


The meeting pointed out that cities in the Lancang-Mekong region share the same source of water. The Lancang River starts from Yushu in China’s Qinghai province and flows through China’s Tibet and Yunnan before reaching the lowland areas where it meets with the Mekong River and finally passes through Myanmar, Laos, Cambodia and 

Vietnam. China and these countries are neighbors connected by mountains and rivers, and are natural partners with mutually beneficial cooperation.


The meeting published Kunming Consensus which aims to carry out pragmatic tourism cooperation in the Lancang-Mekong region and establish a cooperation platform that focuses on each city and is participated in by tourism enterprises, associations, universities and social organizations.


Yunnan will actively carry out cultural activities such as art, film and music festivals, as well as cultural relics exhibitions and book fairs with regional countries, in an attempt to advance more diversified tourism cooperation with increasingly frequent cultural and tourism exchange programs.
