Egypt\u2019s Minister of Tourism and Antiquities Khaled Al-Anani met with Satya Anand, President for Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) at Marriott International, to discuss establishing three- and four-star hotels in Egypt\u2019s new tourist cities.<\/p>\n
During the meeting, the two sides also discussed a number of other issues related to the tourism and hotel sector in Egypt.<\/p>\n
Anand reviewed the company\u2019s policy regarding the expansion in the numbers of its hotels. This includes its current approach and desire to establish three and four-star hotels aimed at different social segments, as well as providing various services.<\/p>\n
He said that the company is implementing its hospitality training improvement programme in Egypt, with the aim of improving the skills-set of the local community.<\/p>\n
The programme aims to help graduates into the workforce, and provide Egypt\u2019s hotel sector with trained employees. This is to take place through training students and adopting a specialised approach to leadership professions in hospitality.<\/p>\n
For his part, Al-Anani welcomed the company\u2019s establishment of hotels, saying that more hotel facilities could be established in a number of tourist hotspots in Egypt, such as Aswan, the North Coast, and New Alamein City.<\/p>\n
This will come as part of the Egyptian state\u2019s policy to develop the tourism infrastructure in tourist cities and new cities.<\/p>\n
The Minister said that the Egyptian state spares no effort in promoting the country\u2019s tourism sector, and provide facilities for investors in this field.<\/p>\n
Anand noted that Egypt has much potential in terms of its tourism, as well as archaeological and natural wonders. He said that this ensures Egypt\u2019s popularity as a tourist destination, and that he will make a number of visits to tourist and archaeological sites as part of his visit to Egypt programme.<\/p>\n
