Cape Town Tourism and Cape Town Routes Unlimited have both launched new websites in the past month, each of them promoting Cape Town, reports TravelHub.
Western Cape provincial minister of Tourism Garth Strachan once again called for better co-operation between Cape Town Tourism and Cape Town Routes Unlimited (CTRU) at a tourism destination conference hosted by Cape Town Routes Unlimited eatlier this month. He has recently publicly requested the City of Cape Town to reconsider its withdrawal of funding from CTRU, and subsequent appointment of Cape Town Tourism to market the city.
Strachan also said that the province has had to allocate a further R 3,5 million to CTRU, to allow for World Cup 2010 marketing this year.
Strachan described the current tourism politics as “it’s the silly season six weeks before the election. Hopefully we will see sense afterwards.”
