Sekanje krila turističnega sektorja Sejšelov?

je Sejšeli Turizem v težavah? Vlada Sejšelov je obudila staro politiko, imenovano vertikalna integracija, ki je bila odložena in omejuje možnosti rasti lokalnih podjetij. Turistična trgovina to vajo imenuje "striženje kril" turističnega sektorja.

Turizem ostaja steber gospodarstva Sejšelov in ta nova uredba obravnava samo turistično trgovino. Ena prizadeta stranka je že vložila ugovor na uredbo pred sodišči Sejšelov. Sejšeli obupno potrebujejo svojo turistično industrijo, da bi delovala, saj zagotavlja zaposlitev poleg tega, da zagotavlja trdnost gospodarstva.

Turistični odbor Sejšelov bo moral poiskati dodaten proračun za trženje, če bodo večje DMC skrčile svoje stroške trženja in zmanjšale svojo prisotnost na turističnih sejmih, ker jim novi predpisi "pristrižejo krila".

Zdaj je čas, da ima vlada Sejšelov serijo sestankov od spodaj navzgor o tej zadevi. Jeza in pričakovanja se kopičijo in vlada lahko ugotovi, da ni sposobna izpolniti objavljenih zahtev, in hkrati tvega krčenje otoške turistične industrije.

Ena objava na družbenih medijih v zadnjih nekaj dneh je povedala nekaj o tem:

»Od odgovornih slišimo veliko hrupa glede števila ladij za križarjenje, ki obiščejo Sejšele. Samo vprašam, koliko nas Sejšelcev ima koristi? Ti turisti ne kupijo niti banane, niti rdečega kokosa za pitje, niti ne jedo v restavraciji, ne najamejo taksija ali kolesa, niti čolna, da bi prišli do otoka Coco ali Curieuse. Pristanejo v pristanišču in se vkrcajo na avtobus belega moža, da opravijo svojo turnejo in jedo v njegovem hotelu, se odpeljejo z drugim čolnom do La Digue in naredijo isto stvar.”
