Right? What's your take on how the tourism dept should go about marketing the tourism in islands online, given the fact that other states have gone to extents of social media marketing on facebook and twitter. I would love to hear the views of folks on the forum.

The fact that tourism department owns and rents hotels & busses to punters is ridiculous. It's tax money which is used to compete against private businessmen. They can sustain loss as govt. will keep on paying but what about us? This could happen only on one place on earth - ?Incredible? India

Tourism is not a 9am to 5pm job. Our administration needs to understand this.
The sooner the better!

othyer than sitting in ac office the director dosen't know anything......one scrap ship not sea worthy was recently purchased ( Ramanujam).. he says that it shall be converted inot a theater...........first of all they have to spend another 3 crores to make it worthy..............basic thing is that this particular ship is made for colder countries. hope that this will be like the ship which the tourim dept has purchased inthe year 1993 which ha s not made maiden voyage.. meetings and licking other's a..............sssss.......... is what they know.a proper web site can be made shelling not much of money i think even the moderator has come forward that he will make it free of cost.
