THE dust has yet to settle over the Mahkota by-election but the angry exchange of words that has erupted is threatening to wash away the camaraderie between partners of the unity government.
PHNOM PENH: Prime Minister Hun Manet has revealed that Cambodia is preparing to introduce packages for “film tourism”, following the successful promotion of the Kingdom as a tourism destination via international film, such as that of Angelina Jolie's Lara Croft: Tomb Raider.
“We will designate some locations for ‘film tourism’. For example, if a region is designated as one of these locations, when a crew comes to shoot, we will offer them a special price, regardless of how many days they stay for. When the filming is completed, we even provide some incentives to the film companies,” he said.
One tour guide who met with Manet said that he had asked many international tourists about how they came to hear about Cambodia and make the decision to come here.Manet also briefed the assembled tour guides on the government’s latest efforts to restore the tourism sector, which was hit hard by the Covid-19 pandemic, among other issues.
Some tour guides encourage Manet to push for more modern tourism promotions, such as those applied in Thailand.
