Japan, the third-largest economy in the world, is being courted as a major tourism destination by Bahrain's Tourism and Exhibitions Authority.
Dr. Nasser Qaedi, CEO of the BETA, met with top Japanese
officials from the tourist, hospitality, entertainment, commerce, and
industrial sectors several times as part of an official visit to Tokyo to
examine ways to improve bilateral collaboration.
To discuss ways to increase the number of Japanese
visitors to Bahrain by twofold, Qaedi met with the head of the Japan National
Tourism Organization, executive executives at the Japan Tourism Agency, travel
agency representatives, Japanese manufacturers, and hospitality specialists.
In addition, Qaedi discussed the prospect of investing in
Bahrain and building new locations with well-known Japanese restaurant owners
and hotel managers in that country.
Agreements for unique travel packages and alliances with
regional airlines were the main topics of conversation with travel
professionals.
In order to assure their participation in forthcoming
events and exhibits in Bahrain, Qaedi also visited with Japanese jewelry groups
and firms.
According to him, Bahrain's 2022–2026 strategy aims to
improve tourism's GDP contribution and draw more visitors from across the
world, particularly from east Asia.
