These advisories are normally crafted by the Foreign Offices in respective countries and most of the time no due consideration is given to their impacts on tourism one of the world's growth industries that supports millions of people in terms of employment and livelihoods in addition to promoting global sociology-cultural understandings and respect among the global communities. In support of these sentiments, the Ministers called on the UNWTO to consider possibilities of developing a parallel travel advisories system within its system to counter the foreign offices advisories by providing accurate and timely updates on security and safety details of the various destinations. This way countries will be able to guarantee the safety and security of the tourist at all times and other national agents will be in a position to respond to the needs of the tourism industry as a national priority. Meanwhile, the Minister has since Monday been holding a series of media interviews with both the mainstream media house like BBC, CNN and the travel media in the United Kingdom with an objective of providing them with updates of the security situation in the country. In his message, honorable Balala has assured the media and the world that Kenya is still one of the safest destinations and the government has undertaken comprehensive security measures to ensure the security of visitors and Kenyans. The Minister will continue with these reassurances to other key European source markets next week.
