The
Western Cape government is aiming to increase the province’s tourism sector by 65%.
This came out of a workshop held earlier this week between the provincial
government and the private sector.
Ministerial
Spokesperson Bronwynne Jooste said Minister Winde is saying that at this stage
these are proposals which would look to increase the amount of formal jobs in
the industry and they are a range of options that are been looked at right now.
“This
includes a focus on higher end travellers as well as a strong focus on new
media and how we can use that to grow the tourism sector in the Western Cape.”
Jooste added.
