Tourism earns revenue through foreign exchange. This foreign exchange is necessary for the government to reduce its deficit and media is responsible for creating awareness about tourist destinations available in India to the overseas travellers. Media industry works with hotels,travel agencies ,airlines ,tour operators and various government agencies to bring revenue to the country by promoting tourism.Even social media like Facebook and twitter are also promoting tourism.

boldness and transparency? I aspire to see a monthly / quarterly newspaper named probably "IndiAfrica" very soon. I will try to post some "China - Daily" newspapers to your office. Trust you will get time to have a look. It feels great to reach out to our government directly and its first time I feel my voice is heard. Someone is listening and will callout for more utilization. Warm Regards.

In today's life an aggressive and strategic combination of print and social media is must to grab the eyeballs and have the mind-share of whole community and build the perception in shorter period immensely.

and enquired if there's any such recurring publication by Indian government. It was received with enthusiasm and I was handed some coffee-table hardcover books by Indian government and told that there are no regular newspaper for "Indian Interests & Investments in Africa". I then met Consulate General and put forward the idea of publishing one such newspaper monthly / quarterly. He appreciated the suggestion but also mentioned its limitations from a logistics point of view. However I shared (2)
