According to the Events, Public Relations and Social Management, Yvonne Joseph ‘ the COVID-19 pandemic impacted our industry hugely, affecting operations across every sector, still, it brought a positive impact on our tourism sector.
‘Since international travel and tourism became impossible during the heat of the pandemic, more attention was shifted to local tourism’.
