Need to build a River tourism information system for tourism students in Ho Chi Minh City

In recent times, information technology has been developing very fast in the world. Information system has become a major subject that introduced by many universities. In the field of training, an information system is a knowledge system that is scientifically collected, processed, stored, and distributed. The content of information and knowledge is diverse, accurate, presented, and rationally arranged. Many subjects are being taught to students by tourism faculties of the universities in Ho Chi Minh city. The content and form of training in each school are different, but there was a common point: Teaching information has not been digitized, academic uniformity, not updated regularly. Also, through practical teaching, we find that tourism students lack much input information to support their majors, especially information about the description of the tourism route. Ho Chi Minh City is the largest economic, political, cultural, and educational center in the country, converging many natural tourism resources, especially river tourism resources. That the reason for the authors to conduct a survey on the need to build an information system on Saigon river tourism to serve tourism students in this city.
