The Angolan Government approves a Plan to Promote Tourism
Following the measure that exempts tourist visas for 98 countries around the world, the Angolan Government recently approved a Plan to Promote Tourism – PLANATUR, which estimates a public investment of more than thirty-five million dollars for the requalification of the main tourist sites classified as priorities, professional training and promoting Angola as tourism destination.
This Plan also foresees the creation of a credit line to boost the private sector. The global value of this financing is three hundred million dollars.
PLANATUR’s main goal is to create infrastructure and public services in the priority tourist sites, ensure the training of staff and create conditions to ensure large-scale direct investment.
This political measure fits into the Angolan Executive's strategy of transforming tourism as one of the pillars for the diversification of the national economy.
