Also why is BTA focused on training people in hospitality/tourism? What does work force development do? Seems like BTA is making up for the lack of action by a government department yet again. Why are we paying 2 entities to do the same job?

It is needed , but BTA should be focused on marketing the destination. If there is already a govt department supposedly focused on getting the population ready for work, then again why duplicate efforts. To often you see the BTA having to pick up the slack of other govt departments because it needs to get done. Hold these other departments accountable .
