Five business associations of various activities related to Cebag, explained and delivered yesterday and ratings written proposals to the Bureau of Tourism Totana, which made contributions to the draft Strategic Plan of Tourism Totana, while proposing ideas about other aspects of tourism.
These organizations propose that "identifying the potential linked to rural tourism and gastronomy and local products," in which Totana plays an important role at regional and national levels, such as paprika and elaborate, and the grape Dominga table and its connection with the holiday of the year.
They also proposed the development of characteristic landscapes, like the almond trees in bloom, and especially the orange trees, so closely associated with the stamp of "gardens".
However, they expressed their opposition to hunting tourism, as proposed in the Strategic Plan, can be considered a tourism product to promote.
Because, as stated in writing the alleged "hunting flavor" of hunting Barbary sheep, is identified by hundreds of farmers as "the bitter taste of the damage and destruction" of crops, it never compensated.
For this reason the five associations signing this written question "the desirability and profitability of Totana linking the Tourist Association of Municipalities Espuņa" because they believe that the activity and the Commonwealth's main strategy is mainly focused on hunting Barbary sheep.
It is also proposed to the board of tourism, it is necessary to deepen the strategic Tourism Plan Totana and agree with all groups and stakeholders, setting priorities set and setting the "technical support and training on implementation and adhesion of various types of establishments and enterprises, the basic figures of certification for excellence in tourism destination. "
As was done with the certification of over eighty shops Totana with the system of quality and excellence Sol Murcia, Commerce Trust.
Also noted in the meeting, and is manifested in the writing of these Associations, which is necessary to "give urgent and definitive solution" to environmental problems of environmental pollution of our religious tourist spot.
Because, as manifested "the excellence and prestige of the most emblematic hotel and resort Totana (The Holy) may be seeing many years overshadowed by the serious problem of sewage discharges."
What I believe is totally incompatible with the excellence expected from an establishment in the heart of a nature reserve, and can hinder and prevent the accreditation of any certification of tourism excellence, both the resort and religious in particular, as the Espuņa Park in general.
