Like last year, this year is also full of challenges. With the pandemic, countries have been on lockdown and stopped all travel, whether for entertainment or work-related purposes. Isn&#8217;t this a problem? Due to the shutdown, almost as many countries took part in World Tourism Day last year, and this may also be the case this year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">As the COVID-19 virus spreads worldwide, it is not surprising that tourism has become one of the most affected industries.

In compliance with all health and safety agreements, the South African government has proposed a reliable plan to revitalize tourism and promote nation-building. So we are very excited!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">No wonder\u00a0<\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">World Tourism Day<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0is such a wonderful initiative.
