In a brief address during the ceremony, the Eastern Regional Manager of Ghana Tourism Authority Frederick Adjei- Rudolph noted that the Covid-19 pandemic has greatly affected the tourism industry, therefore, lauded the partnership agreement stating that it would help boost domestic tourism.
“The tourism industry became one of the most affected sectors in the whole wild world from the onset of the pandemic. As we all know most countries closed their borders including Ghana, hence all international arrivals were halted.
This has caused the industry to experience a drastic loss in revenue. For instance, International Arrivals dropped by close to 70% in the year 2020. If this has not taught anything at all as an industry, it has taught us to look within. Hence, this has caused the industry to strongly focus on domestic tourism to help revive tourism activities.
The Tourism Industry is directing its resources into making the ordinary Ghanaian develop an interest in patronizing tourism” He said.
The hashtag for the project is #VisitEastern – the most exciting and preferred destination in Ghana
