 Good morning and welcome to SPM boys. My good name is Ms. Kithingi reporting live from China Trade Week in Kenya 2023. We are here to experience the opening ceremony of thought leaders, experts, business partners, international partners who are here to interact with each other and of course get to find opportunities that are going to foster the growth and collaboration of the trade and services of this country. Now we are here to see what is happening on the first day because it's going to be a three day exercise right here at the KICC. So you can make your way to this venue and also get to experience and interact with thought leaders, business experts and you never know the chance that you could get right here at the China Trade Week. Stay tuned on SPM boys. My good name is Ms. Kithingi. On a PS maybe if you could tell us if there are departments that you know the department, the sectors that your department is probably prioritizing in you know the collaboration with the Chinese counterparts. First of all we are trying to collaborate with all partners worldwide and China is one of them because I indicated that we have so many Chinese tourists who are coming and first of all we have you are aware we have the southern airlines which we fly direct we have the Kenya Airways which fly direct and so on and so we have the Kenya Tourism Board which is our marketing agency which is reaching out not just to China it's reaching out to all over the world reaching out to all the countries to market our brand to market what we have we have of course many other agencies in tourism like the Kenya Waterloo College which does the training and many others but for Kenya Tourism Board their main mandate is to market the country under the brand Magical Kenya which they are actually doing and our purpose of coming here today of course was to interact and see what the Kenya China Trade Week has most of it of course is investment but you know tourism is also investment because you can invest in hotels you can invest in tour operators companies and so on so tourism cuts across all sectors and works together with everybody because when we have every sector projecting what our country has then you expect even the tourism to grow so we work together with everybody but Kenya Tourism Board does the marketing they are the ones who project the Magical Kenya brand Yes Thank you so much
