Dear Valued Members,
We hope you are well and in good health!

The recent ease of travel restrictions by the Government of Nepal to re-open the tourism sector should be encouraging to many service providers as well as prospective tourists at the source market. However, Nepal, as a destination must be well prepared with promising, precise, and responsible communication strategies to achieve the rapid, robust, and responsible recovery of tourism! Many people in our major source markets are still struggling to cope with the unprecedented challenges of the new variant of COVID-19; however, the majority of them are looking forward to taking a holiday break to naturally safer destinations to feel rejuvenated! 

In this regard, we, PATA Nepal Chapter, have come up with an initiative: "Naturally Nepal: Reopens for Rejuvenation",  a series of short videos to share thoughts and updates from diverse service providers and authorities aiming to encourage prospective travelers and friends of Nepal to travel again and rejuvenate their travel sprit in "Naturally Nepal"!! 

Having a vast PATA network and relations at the public and private sector of the global tourism fraternity, we believe that sharing thoughts and exchanging greetings to the world tourism fraternity by our valued PATA Nepal Members at the various segment of tourism services would be instrumental to support the initiative of our mission to build back better the tourism industry! 

We, therefore, invite you to kindly send us a max two-three minute video from your respective business segment including your specialized product introduction/destination updates, your special package offers and welcoming remarks to the guests! We would then share your video clips through PATA regional and international, PATA Chapters worldwide, and Student Chapter/ Youths Network to magnify the destination updates in different source markets. 

There is no manuscript- but please remember the followings:

• Introduce yourself, share your work profession, and where you are filming the clip presenting your thoughts and updates with a real in life-background! With real in life-background we mean that the videos are shot outdoors, and not Zoom/Teams/Meet background or your own workspace at home:=). 
• The video will serve as a short reminder that Nepal is Open and Ready to serve tourists beyond their confined situation. 
• You may use your mobile phones, but please make sure that your video shoot must be on landscape mode.

We would then forward and share your videos amongst PATA Networks worldwide. 

Kindly send in your video by the latest 15th April 2021 to [email protected].

Should you have any questions or require any further clarifications, please feel free to contact us at any time. 

Thanking you with very best regards.

Sincerely,

Bibhuti Chand Thakur
Chairman
