Hanns Seidel Foundation, a Germany-based foundation will provide technical and financial assistance to Myanmar for the development of its tourism sector, the Ministry of Hotels and Tourism said.
The foundation has signed an MoU with the ministry on May 30 on the assistance which is expected to be a long-term process.
Hanns Seidel is one of the leading non-profit political organizations in the Federal Republic of Germany, founded in 1966.
And the government is also working on a
special tourism plan named “Tourism Master Plan” with financial
assistance from Norway’s government and technical assistance from Asia
Development Bank.
The country’s tourism sector is clearly on its way up, with more and more foreign tourists expected to visit in coming years.
And it is currently experiencing rapid growth as a result of recent political and economic reforms.
The official data showed over 250,000
foreign tourists visited the country from January to April this year, 44
per cent up from the previous year.
