Officials from the BVI Tourist Board will discuss the draft reopening protocols with stakeholders specific to their respective tourism sectors starting this week.
It was a moment of hope, pride and love when the British Virgin Islands Tourist Board (BVITB) unveiled to the Virgin Islands community and the rest of the world its new BVILOVE brand on Monday, September 21.
In announcing that December 1, 2020 is the date for welcoming visitors to our shores, Premier and Minister of Finance, Honourable Andrew A. Fahie has called on the people of the Virgin Islands to do their part to make the reopening a success.
During my first meeting with the Premier and Cabinet, as Director of Tourism, the Premier said that I was having my baptism by fire. Indeed I am. But I am built for firefighting.
Today is another great day for the people of the Virgin Islands.
We are moving forward with BVILOVE.
During an innovation business symposium in December 2019, I announced that the Government of the Virgin Islands was moving forward with a rigorous economic development and diversification strategy, in which we developed and incorporated the concept of BVILOVE which is tied to our aggressive “green and innovative” legislative agenda for 2020.
