2008 Tourism Speak-Off Competition today

(CNS): Two of the three young people battling to become this year’s Junior Minister of Tourism at the 2008 Tourism Speak-Off Competition this afternoon are students at the Cayman Brac High School. The event will take place at the University College of the Cayman Islands Multipurpose Hall, hosted by the Ministry and Department of Tourism. It is open to the general public and starts at 4:00 pm.

Karthika Velusamy and Jovonnie Anglin will join Andrel Harris from the John Gray High School at the event developed to expand secondary students’ knowledge of tourism by addressing subject matters that influence the industry from a local, regional, and international standpoint.

The Tourism Speak-Off Competition will be conducted in the format of a Cabinet meeting and the students will act as Members of Parliament, discussing and responding to topical tourism issues.
