ABUBUWAN DA ZA KU GUDU DAGA WANNAN LABARI:

Edmund Bartlett has charged all tourism interests in the Caribbean to join in the debate regarding the reversal or adjustment being sought in the application of the controversial Air Passenger Duty, APD, on travellers from the United Kingdom to the region.
He maintains that “we in the Caribbean should support the proposal suggested by the Caribbean Tourism Organization (CTO) for a less discriminatory approach to the computation of the tax that is imposed.
Minista Bartlett, yayin da yake jawabi ga hukumar kula da yawon bude ido ta Majalisar Dinkin Duniya. UNWTO 19th General Assembly now underway in Gyeongju, South Korea yesterday, said “the debate should continue in light of the fact that the UK Government is facing growing opposition in Parliament over plans to increase the rate of APD.
