We did not make the mistake of thinking that the world owed us a living because we had got it right once. We did not look for subsidies or tax breaks to cushion an inevitable decline in business or for grants to transform one kind of holiday formula into another. We faced up to facts and we acted accordingly. There are very few things that are permanent in the world of tourism. One of the key facts that the strategic review has to face up to, is that the future will simply not be able to sustain all the businesses that thrived in the golden years. We are moving into a different kind of world and I hope we will be smart enough to realise it. It is only if we do realise it and plan accordingly that we can get the best for the country out of tourism in the years ahead.
