Mekong Tourism Forum 2011 to Showcase Emerging Destinations


THAILAND - Innovators of Mekong tourism will convene in Pakse, ChampasakProvince, southern Laos, on the Mekong River, May 27-28 to share insights and business leads on the region's emerging destinations.

The 2011 edition of the Mekong Tourism Forum will take place in the emerging destination of Pakse, southern Laos, 27-28 May. Under the theme, "Destination Mekong: The Making of a Star," the leading tourism event for the Mekong region will showcase emerging destinations and trends in the Greater Mekong Sub-region (GMS).

"The Forum is the event of the year for travel industry professional dedicated to putting the GMS on the global travel map as a single destination," said Mason Florence, executive director of the Mekong Tourism Coordinating Office in Bangkok.

"The Mekong Tourism Forum provides great inspiration to companies seeking to innovate and grow across the Greater Mekong Region," said Willem Niemeijer, CEO and co-founder of Khiri Group. "Last year the Forum proved to be a great source of synergy between grass roots operators, multi-national hotel chains, destination management companies, NGOs, government bodies and the media. I have the same high expectations of this year's Forum in the emerging destination of Pakse."

Attendees, from travel companies to NGOs and handicraft sellers can also take a booth at the Forum's Mekong Travel Fair in the same venue, the Champasak Grand Hotel. Booths cost just US$200 for both days, which includes two exhibitor badges for the Mekong Travel Fair (not the Forum).
