Tourism Minister Abla Dzifa Gomashie wants hotels and restaurants to show off Ghana's culture better. She spoke at a new hospitality school opening on Monday and told business owners to make every room feel Ghanaian. The minister believes visitors become Ghana's best advertisers when they have great experiences here. She wants every guest interaction to make the country look good around the world. Private companies need to step up their game and blend culture with top service.
Gomashie talked about growing up at Burma Camp and learning respect and discipline there. She noticed people don't say please or stand up for guests like they used to do. The minister thinks tourism success comes from friendly receptionists and smart tour guides who know their stuff. She wants workers trained properly for events like PANAFEST and Emancipation Day celebrations. Good hospitality leaves visitors with memories they never forget.
Stephen Asante started the Eagles Hospitality School to fix Ghana's service problems. He believes excellent service should come from local people rather than foreign workers. His school puts students right into hotels where they learn hands-on skills from day one. Asante thinks hotels can become classrooms for the next generation of hospitality workers. Major hotels and banks showed up to support his new training program.
