TAAN to provide skill training to tourism entrepreneurs

Trekking Agencies’ Association of Nepal (TAAN) signed an agreement today with Manthali Municipality of Ramechhap district.
General secretary of TAAN Sarita Lama and mayor of Manthali Municipality Ramesh Kumar Basnet signed the agreement on providing hospitality and service training to tourism entrepreneurs of Ramechhap on behalf of their respective organisations.
As the government has decided to divert all flights of Lukla to Manthali airport from the Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA), tourism entrepreneurs in Ramechhap are gearing up to develop the infrastructure in Manthali municipality.
“As entrepreneurs in Manthali have demanded skill-based training, we have decided to provide hospitality training here to improve the service quality,” Lama said, adding that it is an opportunity for all concerned to develop Manthali as a transit hub for tourists travelling to Lukla.
She also requested local tourism entrepreneurs to ensure quality service, security and convenient travel and said that TAAN is always ready to cooperate with local entrepreneurs. “TAAN expects this training to benefit local entrepreneurs by providing them with necessary skills and knowledge,” she added.
Likewise, mayor Basnet, on the occasion, said that Manthali has been considered as an alternative only, so the municipality is taking an initiative to develop it as a tourist destination for both domestic and international tourists.
