Tourism Business Council confirms that government will obliterate tourism even beyond Covid-19
10 June 2020
The Tourism Business Council of South Africa (TBCSA) presented their assessment on the impact of Covid-19 on the South African tourism sector to date and in future.
The data presented echoed the data obtained by the Democratic Alliance (DA) in preparation for its Tourism Recovery Plan, launched last week.
The TBCSA confirmed that if the lockdown is not lifted or at least lightened, between 1.1 million to 1.2 million jobs will be lost.
They presented an honest but damning assessment of the tourism sector and how it is quickly being destroyed by the government because of its refusal to open up the sector.
