The Exceutive Committee of OTOAI led by its President Mahendra Vakharia signed an MoU with Bunny Bhoola, Director, African Link Travel, for its South Africa convention. Since the convention is a B2B event, Bhoola believes that there is a need to forge great partnerships, increased networks and support of niche experiences. “You’d get an opportunity to meet local suppliers, interact experience and learn about the culture of South Africa as much as we want to learn about the culture of India,” she mentioned.

Sharing details about the facilities provided for the convention, Bhoola said, “There is a combination of different role players along with the government who are working to provide accommodation, transport, raw experiences, hidden secrets and hidden gems of our country.
