Tanzanian president admires Jamaican tourism

Impressed with Jamaican tourism, Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikwete said his country can learn a lot from the Caribbean Island of Jamaica.

The president toured the islands of Jamaica and Trinidad & Tobago last week and he agreed that Tanzania's tourism sector was under-performing compared to the natural heritage available in the East African country.

President Kikwete called for radical measures that would help to spearhead tourism development in a country that boasts of wildlife, culture, ocean beaches and historical sites, which are all the leading tourist attractions in the African continent.

Mr. Kikwete explored both natural and man-made tourist attractions at Jamaica's Ocho Rios tourist hub in St. Ann region, where he expressed that he is envious of the achievements registered by the Caribbean country.
