KATHMANDU, Aug 24:

Joint Tourism Coordination Committee (JTCC), a group of travel trade associations, on Sunday organized a program to welcome newly appointed tourism secretary Suresh Man Shrestha.

Speaking at the program, tourism entrepreneurs requested the new secretary to strengthen Nepal Tourism Board (NTB) saying that irregularities there have hindered growth of the tourism industry. Ramesh Prasad Dhamala, coordinator of JTCC, said the new secretary should do the needful for strengthening NTB so that Nepali tourism products and services can be promoted effectively in international market. “We are ready to partner with the government for the development of tourism industry and help the government to make amendment to policies as per the need,” added Dhamala. JTCC NEPAL

Saying that tourist arrival is falling in 2014 because of the impasse in NTB, tourism entrepreneurs urged the government to make NTB functional at the earliest. “The government must think of improving tourist arrivals. For this, it should soon control irregularities at NTB and strengthen transport system, mainly the national flag carrier,” BK Shrestha, president of Hotel association of Nepal (HAN), said.

Responding to the tourism entrepreneurs, Secretary Shrestha said he would help the private sector to promote Nepal in the international arena. “We need to promote our alternative tourist destinations. Our destinations are unique as we are rich in natural resources and biodiversity,” he said. Shrestha also said NTB should be saved from political interference. “It is a matter of great shame that NTB is involved in financial irregularities,” Shrestha said, adding, “We will wait for the report of the probe team and take appropriate decision accordingly.”

He also called upon tourism entrepreneurs to promote domestic tourism.

Ultra marathon runner and mountaineer, Sanjay Pandit, sets a new world record by spending over 6 minutes – half naked on top of Mount Elbrus.

On his way to conquering the tallest mountain in Russia, Mount Elbrus, Pandit spent 6minutes and 3seconds with top half of his body naked out in an extreme condition toSanjay-Pandit-holding-a-Nepal-flag set the world record. Adverse weather had delayed his accent up the Elbrus, by two days. On the same day, July 20, he successfully climbed another popular mountain in Russia mount Chirgad. Sanjay Pandit who had been making plans to climb all the tallest mountains in all seven continents has already succeeded in Asia, Africa and Europe. Sanjay Pandit holding a Nepal flag, Photo: RSS

Within Nepal Pandit has climed dozen mountains including Manaslu, Chhukugree, Island peak and Nagarjun. In doing so, he has also put his name on record books as the first ultra marathon runner to climb all these mountains. Pandit is said to be currently in the process of registering his triumph in the record books. Pandit has thanked all those who supported his endeavour including Nepal government, Ministry of Sport, Nepal Sports Council and Nepal Mountaineer Association among others. He is planning on climbing mount Denali in United States for his next challenge. Spending even a short time at the top of Mount Elbrus is a daunting task with temperatures dipping down to -60 degrees centigrade. Pandit is said to have suffered some frost bite on his feet and had acquired spots around his face (probably due to frostbite).

However, he has said that he was proud to have done so. “I feel proud to let the world know of Nepal and Nepali’s bravery though the medium of sport”, Pandit said.

As many as 35,000 people stood together in Tundikhel on Saturday in an attempt to create the world’s largest human national flag.

man made national flag
Many of the Nepalis who showed up at the parade ground were thrilled to have been part of the effort. “I had to wait for four hours, but I take pride in being witness to this historic moment,” said Geetanjali Neupane, a student at Pulchowk Engineering Campus. “I will be credited if we make it into the Guinness Book of World Records.”A video footage and pictures of the event will be sent to the Guinness World Records, in London, for a world record. The verification process could take up to three months. If the effort meets all the criteria, it will set a new record. Pakistan holds the current record for the world’s largest human national flag. It was set in February 2014 when 28,957 people gathered in Lahore to create a Pakistani flag.
“This is a historic event. I think we have successfully set a new world record,” said Bhawesh Khanal, president of Human Values for Peace and Prosperity, the event organiser. “Our aim is to show that there is unity among us.”
Fourteen-year-old Nabina Shrestha expressed her joy at being a part of the show. “Like many others, I have drawn the Nepali flag on paper over the years. Today, I got to be one of those who created this biggest flag.”
The flag covered an area of 238,455 sq ft, according to Durgesh Pradhan, a technician who helped design the proceedings. The placards that the participants carried to create the flag’s contours were designed by students from Pulchowk Engineering Campus and Kathmandu Engineering College.
The organizers had estimated 35,907 participants–the number deemed necessary to create the design.

The participants, most of whom students, paid an entry-fee of Rs 100. Organizers’ said some of the amount will be donated to the landslide victims in Sindhupalchok district.

Travel & Tourism shown to be Asia’s largest employer

The Travel & Tourism industry employs more people than any other sector in Asia.

New research from the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) shows that Travel & Tourism directly employs 65 million people across Asia which is more than those employed in financial services, communication services, banking, mining, higher education, chemicals manufacturing and automotive manufacturing.

Pashupati_Nath_glowing_at_night
David Scowsill, the President and CEO, WTTC, says the figures underline the need for Governments to prioritise the industry; “The research clearly indicates the vast economic and social relevance of the Travel & Tourism industry in Asia as well as its potential over the next decade. Travel & Tourism is responsible for 1 in 12 jobs in Asia and employs more people than any other sector”.

ZACHîD SüOÁCA NAD MOUNT EWERESTEM I LHOTSE-FOTO R PAWüOWSKI
Mr Scowsill is urging Governments to adopt the following measures; “The way forward for growth and prosperity is to implement smarter visa and border security policies, avoid or abolish tourist taxes and attract and develop a skilled workforce to support the growing demand. The sector has an exciting future – Governments need to make sure they make the most of the opportunity”.

The new study shows the number of people directly employed in the following major industries:

1. Travel & Tourism – 65.2m jobs
2. Financial Services – 65m jobs
3. Education – 64.7m jobs
4. Communication services – 34m jobs
5. Banking – 32.5m jobs
6. Mining – 16m jobs
7. Chemicals Manufacturing – 13m jobs
8. Automotive Manufacturing – 12.6m jobs
9. Higher education – 8m jobs
