Tourist guides should promote own country.
19 Dec 2008 (1145 days ago)
Tourist Guides have been reminded to promote our own country instead of encouraging and promoting our neighbouring countries.

We have a captive audience of these visitors and we should do more to promote longer stays, repeat visits, and for tourists to promote what we have to offer when they return to their home country, to their families, colleagues, friends and families.

This is even more important when the whole world is facing reduced spending, and leisure travel.

Even when conducting tours for Malaysians, tourist guides are encouraged to promote more travel within Malaysia, taking advantage of the various packages available, and offered by travel agents, airlines, and hotels.

Thank you.
