The Tourism Minister, Mohammed Ibrahim Awal, who led the delegation, also engaged with Dubai-based tour operators and travel trade practitioners.
He laid out Ghana’s claim as the center of the World and urged the travel trade to partner with their Ghanaian counterparts.
Mr Awal Mohammed was accompanied by the GTA CEO, Akwasi Agyeman and they were ushered around by Ghana’s Commissioner General for Dubai Expo, Carlos Ahenkorah.
