Dimash should become the face of Kazakh tourism - expert
In his speech, Dai Bin who was invited to speak at the event as an international expert spoke about the psychological characteristics of Chinese tourists and dwelled upon the ways to attract tourists to Kazakhstan.
According to him, Kazakhstan has a good potential for developing different types of tourism, including ethnic, ecological, and historical ones.
He noted that even though the Year of China Tourism in Kazakhstan and the ADS agreement facilitated the increase of tourist flow from China, the country still has a lot to do in terms of improving the tourist infrastructure in order to reach a new level of development and achieve higher profits.
In particular, in his opinion, it is necessary to launch charter flights to the Kazakh cities, make the Internet accessible along the roads and railways, etc.
