| Abstract | In stark contrast to 1996, when Hong Kong hotels were sitting easy on high demand and turning away business, World Travel Market in 1997 will see them going after business with a vengeance. An expected slump after the July 1 handover has turned into an unexpected crisis with arrivals and occupancy plunging in July, August and September. The crisis has prompted a taskforce of directors of sales and marketing to get together and propose initiatives aimed at making Hong Kong "an easier place to do business with" for tour operators. |
