The TAFI convention starts with a focus on sustainable success
The 11th TAFI (Travel Agents Federation of India) international convention opened in Turkey with a focus on sustainable success as the way forward towards creating a vision for exponential business growth for the agent community as well as the destinations they promote.
TAFI President Praveen Chugh echoed this approach in his keynote address, noting how TAFI international conventions had historically made a direct impact Indian outbound numbers to the host destination, and that the same will likely hold true for Turkey. The 11th TAFI international convention was inaugurated at the Hilton Dalaman Resort and Spa.
Later, Indian ambassador to Turkey, Rahul Kul-shresth observed the cultural, historic and architectural similarities between Turkey and India, and how both countries had supported each other during crucial times. “It is a shared belief that as we work closely together, people to people contact and cultural exchange will be key to sustain this relationship and that is why bilateral tourism is extremely relevant and there is room for collaboration beyond that as well,” he said.
While, Alexander also said if the world is one country Istanbul should be the capital.
