Tourism Business Council of South Africa (TBCSA) hopes that the South African government can 'Break down the industry into smaller sections to increase the possibility of small wins'. IOL_Lifestyle lockdown

The organisation hosted a webinar with over 1600 key stakeholders within the tourism and hospitality sector on Monday afternoon to discuss the future of tourism in the country. The webinar was hosted by TBCSA Chair Blacky Komani, TBCSA CEO Tshifhiwa Tshivhengwa, and moderated by David Frost SATSA CEO.

"One of the lessons learned is to break down the industry into smaller sections to increase the possibility of small wins contributing to bigger industry success," he said. They are trying to fight for the reopening of the sector in a bid to keep their doors open and save jobs. Tshivhengwa said since the declaration of a National State of Disaster in South Africa, the TBCSA met with a number of government officials, including Ramaphosa, to present the tourism recovery plan. The organisation also presented the industry’s health protocols, industry job losses, business closures, and financial relief.
