There is so much untapped potential in SA’s tourism sector – Patricia de Lille
In an interview with the Business Report, de Lille said her focus in this new role was to drive greater implementation of the Tourism Sector Recovery Plan and destination development and marketing and accelerate efforts on all fronts to help the sector create more jobs.
“Globally there are indications that tourism is recovering and people are beginning to travel, while airlines are also returning to South Africa. Last year was a promising year for the tourism sector as the first year when people really started travelling again after the Covid-19 pandemic.
“The numbers are encouraging, and the success of the tourism sector is a result of efforts and collaboration by both the public and private sector,” de Lille said.
