OA MEA E AVEA MAI LENEI TUSI:
- “At a time when the travel and tourism industry is facing an unprecedented threat to long-term financial stability, we see a government in Europe imposing tax increases which pose a real threat to jobs and businesses, not only in the UK, but in destinations across the Asia Pacific region,”.
- E lagolagoina e le PATA manatu ua faaalia i aso nei e le ATEC, le Australian Tourism Export Council, aemaise lava i le tulaga tau faamata'u i maketi tau turisi i maketi o loo tulai mai e pei o le Pasefika i Saute.
- This move by the UK government is simply about increasing revenues for the state under the very dubious cover of consolidating its green credentials.
