ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan Friday said that tourism had exploded in Pakistan, as there was so much tourism presently which was not witnessed in the country’s history.
The prime minister emphasised that environmental protection of tourist destinations must be ensured, and noted that ecotourism had become a science. He was addressing the launching ceremony of Ecotourism: Travel Responsibility for Experiencing Eco Tourism (TREK). Referring to Switzerland, he said that this country earns annually $80 billion only from skiing during winter season, while Pakistan’s total exports stood at $25 billion. He contended that there was so much potential in skiing in Pakistan, which hitherto remained undiscovered.
