Jail for HR exec in Singapore who saw firm’s bank account as ‘personal piggy bank’, made bogus pay claims of S$136,000ORAN , June 3 — Algeria wants to lure more visitors to the cultural and scenic treasures of Africa’s largest country, shedding its status as a tourism backwater and expanding a sector outshone by competitors in neighbouring Morocco and Tunisia.
As Algeria’s oil and gas revenues grew in the 1960s and 70s, successive governments lost interest in developing mass tourism. A descent into political strife in the 1990s pushed the country further off the beaten track. Algeria has plans to build hotels and restructure and modernise existing ones. The tourism ministry said that about 2,000 tourism projects have been approved so far, 800 of which are currently under construction.
