The Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA) Thailand Chapter launched its website to serve its 100 travel industry member organisations. The website at PATA-Thailand.org has been designed to advance the Chapter’s agenda to promote the responsible development of the travel industry in Thailand.
The website supports upcoming educational, training and networking events such as the Thailand Travel Mart June 7-10, the PATA Thailand IT Seminar June 27, and the “Big Ticket” meetings, incentives, conventions and exhibitions (MICE) seminar October 27.
“There is a hunger for knowledge among many young members of the travel industry,” said Chapter Chairman, Mr Bob James. “The website lists the educational events and encourages travel industry members to join the Chapter and benefit from events which we organise on a not-for-profit basis,” he said.
The 100 page website designed by Bangkok-based Softech Business Solutions also lists the contact details of all 100 member organisations involved in international inbound tourism, including giants such as THAI Airways and the Tourism Authority of Thailand as well as local family-run resorts in far-flung corners of Thailand.
“PATA’s strength is its bridging role between international and domestic tourism and our ability to represent the private and public sectors in equal measure,” said Mr James. “The PATA brand is respected because it’s not just about profit, it’s about education and responsible development.”
