She noted that they have taken up a number of medium and long term strategies to implement a programme to bring in more tourists to the country.
The planned JWT campaign was a nearly US$1 billion promotion that was expected to get underway by August but had run into problems that was raised by the Attorney General's department. (Sunimalee)
