PRETORIA, 6 MARCH 2023 The Tourism Business Council of South Africa (TBCSA) has noted the changes to the executive announcement by President Cyril Ramaphosa. As
Tourism minister Lindiwe Sisulu approved a trip to London by a delegation led by SA Tourism board for the controversial nearly R1bn sponsorship proposal for English soccer team Tottenham Hotspurs.
The Tourism Business Council of South Africa says it is concerned by the way SA Tourism has gone about its decision. The council says the proposal does not consider where the growth for the tourism sector is going to come from.
