Cortando as asas do setor de turismo das Seychelles?

o turismo de Seychelles está em apuros? O governo de Seychelles reviveu uma antiga política chamada Integração Vertical que havia sido engavetada e está impondo limitações à possibilidade de crescimento dos negócios locais. A indústria do turismo está chamando este exercício de 'cortar as asas' do setor de turismo.

O turismo continua a ser o pilar da economia das Seychelles e apenas o comércio de turismo é alvo deste novo regulamento. Uma parte afetada já apresentou uma contestação ao regulamento perante os Tribunais de Seychelles. Seychelles precisa desesperadamente que sua indústria de turismo funcione, pois fornece empregos além de garantir que a economia permaneça sólida.

O Conselho de Turismo de Seychelles precisará encontrar um orçamento de marketing extra se os DMCs maiores reduzirem suas despesas de marketing e diminuirem sua presença nas feiras de turismo por causa de suas 'asas sendo cortadas' pelos novos regulamentos.

Chegou a hora de o Governo das Seychelles realizar uma série de reuniões "de baixo para cima" sobre este assunto. A raiva e as expectativas estão aumentando e o governo pode se ver incapaz de atender às demandas apresentadas e correr o risco de encolher a indústria do turismo da ilha ao mesmo tempo.

Um post nas mídias sociais durante os últimos dias disse algo sobre isso:

“Ouvimos muito barulho dos responsáveis ​​sobre o número de navios de cruzeiro que visitam Seychelles. Eu só pergunto quantos de nós Seychelles estão se beneficiando? Esses turistas não compram nem banana, nem coco vermelho para beber, nem comem em restaurante, não alugam táxi ou bicicleta, nem barco para chegar ao Coco ou à Ilha Curieuse. Eles desembarcam no porto e embarcam no ônibus do homem branco para fazer seu passeio e comer em seu hotel, pegam outro barco para La Digue e fazem a mesma coisa”.
