Ghazi Ghulab Jamal calls for improving country's image
2005-01-14
Dr Ghazi Ghulab Jamal, federal minister for tourism, has underlined the need for improving the country's image internationally to convince tourists that there was no security problem in Pakistan.
Boy, that'll take some doing!
Maybe they could hire the Daily Kos. Look how well it worked for Howard Dean.
He said this on Thursday at a meeting for 'Gandhara Week', which is being arranged from March 28 to April 3. GG Jamal said Pakistan had spectacular tourist destinations, which could be used for boosting the government's revenue. "We want to promote tourism industry, starting with Gandhara Week," the minister said. He said an International Car Rally from China to Pakistan through Karakoram Highway (KKH) would be held and events to highlight the Indus Civilisation would also take place. He said Pakistan Railways (PR) would help promote tourism in the country.
