PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad - There is no safe place in the world. That was the response yesterday from Carlos Vogeler, regional director for the Americas, World Tourism Organisation (WTO) in response to questions about the double bombing at the Boston marathon and reports that 50 tourists aboard a bus were robbed in St Lucia.
“I think we need to be conscious there is no safe place in the world. It could have happened in Madrid. There is no safe place,” said Vogeler. He was one of the speakers at the Sustainable Development Conference at Hyatt Regency Hotel, Wrightson Road, Port-of-Spain, yesterday. Its theme is Keeping the Right Balance: Enhancing Destination Sustainability Through Products, Partnerships and Profitability. Tourism Minister Stephen Cadiz also attended
