Thailand Named Destination of the Year at the TTG Travel Awards 2013
(PRWEB) October 21, 2013 -- TTG held its lavish 2013 awards ceremony at the Centara Grand and Bangkok Convention Centre in Bangkok. The company began its annual awards in 1989, and they have grown to become the most significant and sought after awards in the Asian travel industry. The ceremony and gala dinner is attended by some of the most influential and renowned personalities in the industry, which makes the whole event a truly star-studded occasion. What’s more, the gala is also attended by the international media, which helps to provide the Asian tourist industry with valuable press coverage beyond the region.
TTG has been Asia’s leading provider of travel publications and business resources since 1974. The company provides insightful editorials and statistics on significant developments in the tourism industry, and it is celebrated by industry professionals for its award-winning journalism.
TTG confers its awards across four different categories, these being Travel Supplier Awards, Travel Agency Awards, Outstanding Achievement Awards and the Travel Hall of Fame. The Destination of the Year award falls within the Outstanding Achievement category, and the winner is determined by TTG’s editorial team in recognition of an outstanding contribution to the tourism industry. This year, the TTG Travel Awards turned out to be an enormously successful evening for Thailand in general, as a further eleven honours were presented to other Thai organisations, hotels and tour operators.
The number of awards presented to Thailand certainly provides evidence that the country’s tourism professionals are constantly seeking to achieve higher standards and to deliver excellent results. Such recognition is important as all tourism authorities are now working in a period of immense competition, and it is essential for them to discover ways to attract more visitors by providing good value for money and unforgettable holiday experiences. Regarding Thailand’s success, the Governor of the Tourism Authority of Thailand, Mr. Suraphon Svetasreni, said, "I would like to extend my gratitude to the editors and readers of TTG Asia for their confidence in Thailand and our entire travel and tourism industry. They certainly go a long way towards encouraging us to reach for the sky."
Krabi Riviera is pleased to promote Thailand’s achievements in the TTG Travel Awards due to its own commitment to the success of the country’s tourism industry. The company manages an impressive portfolio of luxurious holiday villas in the Ao Nang area, and all villas in the Krabi Riviera portfolio have an excellent specification, with designer kitchens, sumptuous bathrooms and private swimming pools.
Receiving a TTG award is a great achievement, and with its abundance of natural beauty and rich cultural heritage, the beautiful Kingdom of Thailand is certainly worthy of TTG’s special recognition.
