Tour-travel operators and hotel owners of Cox’s Bazar are incurring monetary losses, as almost all the travellers have cancelled their bookings to visit the sea beach city in view of the government’s decision to keep the sea beach shut from sunset for seven days from December 28 for security reason.
Thousands of travellers had already cancelled their hotel bookings in view of the decision. They earlier booked renowned hotels of Cox’s Bazar so that they could celebrate 31st night programme there, said the leaders of Hotel, Motel and
Guest House Owners Association (HMGHOA) in Cox’s Bazar on Wednesday. Talking with the reporter, MN Karim, Senior-Vice President of the HMGHOA marked decision unfavourable for hotel business and tourism sector. The government should revert the decision to save the hotel business in Cox’s Bazar.
About 100 hotels had been shut and 30,000 people became jobless in last two years in Cox’s Bazar due to political turmoil and blockade. Many hotel owners are now struggling to survive, said Abul Kashem Sikder, Secretary General of HMGHOA
Traders have invested in different programme and given locative offers for recovering their previous losses caused due to the government’s decision, said Omar Sultan, President of HMGHOA.
