Speaking at the ceremony , the Western Regional Minister , Kwabena Okyere Darko
Mensah , said “Tourism in Ghana, particularly in the Western Region, presents a vital development
opportunity due to the presence of appealing tourist destinations benchmarking the
nation’s leisure potential. However, despite the availability of essential promotional
tools like direct marketing, public relations, sales promotion, and advertising, these
remain underutilized in the tourism sector, hindering effective communication with
target markets.”
