international travel groups call for courtesy tour

Deccan Chronicle  

Alappuzha: Tourism may be down but not out in Kerala as international travel groups have called upon backpackers to tour the state to help it rebuild itself after the floods. Rather than avoiding the state following the disaster, we encourage our travellers to do the exact opposite beca-use bringing tourism income to a devastated community is the best way to help it recover,” said Sue Badyari, CEO, World Expeditions, a major travel group in Australia. The comment came in an article published on August 30 in Australia- based ‘Travel weekly’, which said "tourism is the lifeline to recovery.” The website of World Expeditions has also published an article titled ‘Why you should still travel to Kerala,’ explaining the present situation in the state. The trickle-down economic benefits of travel help will support so many local people,” the article said.
