The project, among other things, would help promote the huge tourism potentials in the Hohoe municipality through photo documentaries meant for local and international magazines and TV documentaries.
She said it was time for her as an MP for the area to collaborate with major investors and institutions to unearth major tourism potentials, such as the Wli Waterfalls, the longest in West Africa, Afadzato and the Tafi Monkey Sanctuary in the Hohoe municipality.
She was optimistic that supporting a worthy cause of ambassadors of tourism on the theme: “Promoting hidden treasures of tourism” would go a long way to market the tourism sites in the municipality for international and local investors to discover the huge tourism potentials in the constituency.
The events manager of the Miss Tourism 2013 pageant, Madam Dolphin Ama Enyonam, thanked Dr Bernice Adiku Heloo, for supporting the project.
She said the time had come for the country to collaborate to tap huge investment potentials in the tourism industry.
That, she said, would help create job opportunities for the youth at all tourism sites visited throughout the country.
Madam Enyonam said all over the world, tourism served as one of the highest source of income for countries, adding that it was time for Ghana to focus on this industry to showcase tourist sites we have in the country as the Miss Tourism pageant contest entered its fourth season with the final crowning ceremony coming off this weekend at the National Theatre in Accra.
