跟据西非经济贸易协会记者采访,冈比亚平均每年接待游客近50万人次,超过90%来自东欧国家,记者采访冈比亚总统,总统与旅游部长更披露五星级酒店严重缺乏,他强调以放宽制度的形式招商酒店业者,相信有高级酒店会吸更更多高端游客前来旅游,更能提升国家形象。


旅游部门表示冈比亚近年来有许多投资考察团来冈比亚考察,通常逗留半个月左右,深度考察海洋资源产业、林木业对于生活环境也能适应,因为我们有西式风格的住宿环境、饮食餐馆更包括西式、黎巴嫩、中式、印度式等等美食,中高端的餐馆大部分都来自于外国厨师。一年前威廉王子来访更来到著名酒店COCO OCEAN逗留不少天,可见当地治安与服务不逊于其他旅游国家。 可预计未来的冈比亚会成为像亚洲的香港,东盟的新加坡,成为旅游圣地、金融城、转口贸易港的西非重镇!


为刺激经济发展,政府更极力发展网路网速,更大力支持电讯宽带等等的基础建设,近年已完成部分主要干道的地下缆线建设,以迎接接下来的多个国际大型活动,比如西非伊斯兰宗教活动等等以赶上加入非洲大陆自由贸易区(AfCFTA)的世界经济脚步。非洲大陆自由贸易区(AfCFTA)旨在通过加强人员,资本,货物和服务的自由流动,促进农业发展,粮食安全,工业化和结构性经济转型,从而深化非洲经济一体化。AfCFTA设想将市场整合与工业和基础设施发展相结合,以解决非洲的生产能力问题。加入AfCFTA发展,最迅速解决的障碍是沟通的速度,我们将全力发展数位领域与相关硬体设施建设,网路能够使投资者与当地劳工快速沟通结合,解决就业问题;在金融经济发展与进出口贸易,网路的速度也决定了国家水平的提升速度,相信未来几年,当网路加强后,国家GDP会因此而加倍发展,迈入成立冈比亚交易所的趋势,成为西非的金融中心!

According to the reporter of West African Economic and Trade Association (WAETC), the Gambia receives nearly 500,000 tourists every year, and more than 90% are from Eastern European countries. The reporter interviewed the President of Gambia. The President and the Minister of Tourism even disclosed that there is a serious lack of five-star hotels. He emphasized the relaxation of the system. Formal investment in hotel industry, believe that there are high-end hotels will attract more high-end tourists to come to travel, it can enhance the image of the country.


The tourism department said that in recent years, Gambia has had many investment missions to Gambia for inspection, usually staying for about half a month, in-depth investigation of marine resource industry, forestry industry can also adapt to the living environment, because we have Western-style accommodation, restaurants, and even Western-style accommodations. , Lebanese, Chinese, Indian and other cuisines, most of the high-end restaurants come from foreign chefs. One year ago, Prince William visited the famous hotel COCO OCEAN and stayed for many days. It can be seen that the local security and service are not inferior to other tourist countries. It can be expected that in the future, Gambia will become Hong Kong in Asia, Singapore in ASEAN, and a major West African city of tourism, a financial city, and an entrepot trade port!


In order to stimulate economic development, the government has made great efforts to develop network speeds and support infrastructure construction such as telecommunications and broadband. In recent years, it has completed the construction of underground cables for some major arterial roads to welcome the next large-scale international events, such as West Africa. Islamic religious activities and so on to catch up with the world economy joining the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). The African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) aims to deepen economic integration in Africa by enhancing the free flow of people, capital, goods and services, promoting agricultural development, food security, industrialization and structural economic transformation. AfCFTA envisions combining market integration with industrial and infrastructure development to solve Africa’s production capacity problems. Joining the development of AfCFTA, the fastest solution to the obstacle is the speed of communication. We will make every effort to develop the digital field and the construction of related hardware facilities. The network can enable investors to communicate with local labor quickly and solve employment problems; in the financial and economic development and progress Export trade and the speed of the Internet also determine the speed of the country's improvement. I believe that when the Internet is strengthened in the next few years, the country's GDP will double as a result, and it will enter the trend of establishing the Gambia Exchange and become the financial center of West Africa!
