Rising up, many people cherished visiting the US, whether or not for the theme parks or larger-than-life experiences.

However immediately my kids love locations like Dubai and Singapore as a result of the theme parks there are so well-maintained. Additionally, Asia and the United Arab Emirates are simple to journey round. Within the first place, I don’t suppose my kids are all in favour of 16-hour airplane journeys. And we’d quite pay for luxurious close to house than go to the US and pay to do the whole lot ourselves.

The world is altering. The way forward for tourism is in Asia and the UAE. It’s secure, luxurious and but cost-effective. And maybe schooling and different sectors will change into massive attracts for Asia and the Center East.

Hong Kong wants a makeover to draw guests

I seek advice from the letter, “2 methods to make Hong Kong a ‘metropolis of hospitality’” (April 20). As a long-term resident, I want to add my very own observations.

Hongkongers have endured a number of years of hardship – the protests which grew to become violent after which three years of Covid-19. And sure, it can take us time to revive Hong Kong’s can-do spirit.

As your correspondent says, to draw worldwide guests and showcase Hong Kong as a “metropolis of hospitality”, we should enhance our infrastructure. We notably want to concentrate to highway upkeep and the beautification of our thoroughfares.

After which there’s the perspective of individuals within the service business, from salespeople in shops to taxi drivers. We critically have to launch a appeal offensive if we’re to deliver again vacationers.

Visiting mates lately travelled to mainland China and had points with their visas. On the mainland facet, they have been greeted with assist and consideration however on the Hong Kong facet, they encountered rudeness. What kind of message does this ship when these guests inform of their experiences again house?

A taxi driver is usually a massive a part of a vacationer’s first encounter with the town. Many drivers are very accommodating however some are simply downright impolite and depressing, and so typically have poor driving abilities.

Lastly, the reducing use of English isn’t serving to us. Any worldwide metropolis should have proficient English audio system. So many pamphlets are written in Chinese language with barely any English translation.

We should do higher if we’re to revive the economic system and enhance the lot of all in our stunning metropolis.
