The Tourism minister, Márcio de Jesus Lopes Daniel, on Wednesday in Luanda informed that a diagnosis will be made on the sector, aimed at improving the knowledge about the constraints that prevent the maximisation of tourism in the country.
The newly appointed minister - who was speaking at the
portfolios exchange ceremony, in view of the separation of the Ministry of
Culture and Tourism, through which they become different ministerial
departments - assured that the focus will be strong on finding ways to boost
tourism in Angola.
To overcome such challenges, Márcio de Jesus Lopes Daniel
explained that after the diagnosis the sector will present the solutions.
He stressed that he will count on the commitment of the
existing cadres in the sector.
"We'll look at the main constraints that there may
exist, as well as listen to the chief operators in the tourism sector, in
various domains, such as hotels and resorts, tourist places and agencies about
their vision and the existing constraints", emphasised the Tourism
minister.
In turn, Culture minister Filipe Zau (whose department used
to have the tourism portfolio too) explained that there was a need to separate
the two areas, recognising, however, that both will have to collaborate with
each other.
Filipe Zau went on to explain that the independence of the
two areas is intended to accelerate economic development and diversification,
plus social well-being.
He concluded by disclosing that one of the challenges of the
sector is to recover theatre halls.
