Good news for all tourism boats in Ha Long Bay: the new policy to repaint white color to all these boats has recently been clarified; no longer are they required to cover their whole appearance in white.

 
A spokeswoman of Quang Ninh’s Provincial People Committee recently explains in details the new policy, assuring that boats and cruises are required to have at least some white paint color on the skin, without any specification how much white is acceptable. Tourist boats are also granted permission to diversify their own painting style to match their current conditions.
 
The previous statement about whitening all boats in Ha Long Bay has met with widespread dissent and objections from boats owners and travel agencies currently operating cruises ships in Ha Long Bay. Doan Van Dung, chief of the Association for Ha Long Tourists Boats, has expressed his relief with the clarified decision, quoted the national e-newspaper VnExpress. 
 
 
Brown cruises are unique tourist attraction of Ha Long Bay
 
For days now, many firms are caught in loss and concern since repainting their whole boat would mean much time and money to be invested. Meanwhile, brown is still the preferred and main color when white plays the role of marginal decoration only.
 
As reported previously, People Committee of Quang Ninh has announced a new policy to repaint white color for all tourist boats at Ha Long Bay to create new images of local tourism.
