Lessons learned at Global Tourism Economy Forum

The two-day Global Tourism Economy Forum ended in Macau yesterday with the meeting’s secretary-general, Pansy Ho, saying that those attending will take away many valuable lessons. “Tourism has been and will continue to be an effective tool to balance the socio-economic development along the Maritime Silk Road countries – and even to recharge and revive a country through changes to tourism offerings that are beyond the limitation of borders and seasonality,” Ms Ho said in closing the forum. Nearly 1,000 delegates from around the world attended the meeting.
