Repost from the Facebook page of Minister David Ma

Repost from the Facebook page of Minister David Maynier, Provincial Minister for Finance and Economic Opportunities, who recently visited us in Kayamandi for a walking tour. Below his words:

This year’s theme for World Tourism Day 🌍 on the 27 September is: “Tourism and jobs – a better future”. World Tourism Day is an opportunity for us to celebrate and recognise the important economic contribution of tourism businesses in the Western Cape.

Last week I had the pleasure of visiting three fantastic tourism businesses in the Western Cape – each one showcasing a diverse range of experiences available to visitors in the province.

I was truly inspired to meet with the owners and employees of these businesses – each one passionate about what they do and committed to contributing to their communities and our province.

Like them, every person in this industry, no matter how small, fulfils an incredibly important role in delivering a culture of service excellence which supports the tourism industry and in turn, grows our economy and creates jobs.

From those who provide accommodation, to venue operators, to tour guides, to tour operators, to booking agents, to event organisers and anyone else who ensures that a visitor to the Western Cape has a great experience – you all deserve our thanks and recognition.

Thanks to you, we can be proud to say that the city, and the province, is vibrant, captivating and open for tourism and business.

This weekend, please go out and explore the best that the Western Cape has to offer and know that in doing so you are playing your part to support job creation in the Western Cape. 🇿🇦🇿🇦 Read More:
