Western Cape’s tourism industry have increased their efforts to get South Africa from the list removed from the UK’s travel ‘red list’ for World Tourism Day on Monday.
Finance and Economic Opportunities
MEC David Maynier has written to Uk and requested the decision be reviewed. He said
easing travel restrictions for those travelling between the two countries ahead
of r summer season will provide much-needed relief for the tourism and
hospitality sector by the pandemic.
Maynier said this was one of many
steps taken to engage with key decision-makers in both the UK and South Africa
to tackle this barrier to the economic recovery of the tourism sector in the
province.
Western Cape Premier Alan Winde believes an end
to the national state of disaster and moving to lockdown level 1 will create
more economic opportunities, especially through tourism.
