L’Allemagne améliore sa position dans le top 10 du classement mondial des destinations de voyage Bruxelles, 22 novembre 2013 – L’Allemagne a le vent en poupe : En 2013, l’Allemagne devient encore plus populaire auprès des hôtes internationaux et tient une des premières places en Europe. Le résultat positif pour l’Allemagne reflète les prévisions de l’Organisation mondiale du tourisme (OMT), qui annonçait une année record dans le monde: ‘Plus d’un milliard de personnes entreprendront des voyages internationaux en 2013’. En raison du volume élevé d’arrivées de touristes internationaux, qui a encore augmenté ces deux dernières années, l’Allemagne améliore encore sa position d’une place dans la liste établie par l’OMT des destinations de voyage entre 2012 et 2013. Elle passe de la 8ème à la 7ème position. « L’excellent développement de ces dernières années persiste en 2013. Ce qui est vraiment une réussite pour l’Allemagne, pays du voyage », explique Ernst Burgbacher, secrétaire d’Etat auprès du ministre fédéral de l’Economie et de la Technologie et chargé de mission du gouvernement pour les PME et le Tourisme. Cette évolution se reflète également dans les derniers chiffres de l’Office fédéral de la statistique : une augmentation de 4% de nuitées de touristes étrangers en hébergement d’au moins 10 lits, selon le premier bilan pour les mois de janvier à septembre. Petra Hedorfer, présidente du conseil d’administration de la Deutsche Zentrale für Tourismus (DZT) : « L’Allemagne se caractérise par une forte croissance en 2013 et se maintient en pleine forme. C’est l’une des rares destinations qui remporte un franc succès, malgré la crise économique et financière. Ses chiffres sont nettement meilleurs que la plupart des autres destinations européennes. L’Office National Allemand du Tourisme L’Office National Allemand du Tourisme (ONAT), dont le siège se trouve à Francfort-sur-le-Main, est le « syndicat d’initiative » national de l’Allemagne. Il promeut les activités touristiques de l’Allemagne pour le compte du ministère fédéral de l’Économie et de la Technologie (BMWi), qui lui apporte son soutien en vertu d’une décision du Parlement fédéral allemand. L’ONAT élabore et communique des stratégies et des produits visant à renforcer l’image positive des destinations touristiques allemandes à l’étranger et à stimuler le tourisme en Allemagne. Pour mener à bien cette mission, il possède 30 représentations locales dans le monde.

Premier hails staunch TaiwanSao Tome ties Taipei, Nov. 18 (CNA) Premier Jiang Yi-huah expressed his appreciation Monday to Sao Tome and Principe for its firm support for the Republic of China. Relations between the two countries have remained good since they established diplomatic relations in 1997, Jiang said while receiving a delegation led by Prime Minister Gabriel Arcanjo Ferreira da Costa of Sao Tome and Principe. “As a staunch ally of the ROC, Sao Tome has been voluntarily helping the ROC over the years to promote its bid to participate in the international community,” Jiang said. At this year’s General Assembly of the United Nations, for example, Sao Tome again expressed support for Taiwan’s meaningful participation in international organizations, he noted. Taiwan, on its part, has provided various types of assistance to the Central African ally to help improve its infrastructure, public health, education, agricultural technology and human resources, the premier said. One of the best known achievements of such cooperative efforts is the significant decrease in the infection and death rates of malaria in Sao Tome, he noted. Also, Taiwan has helped Sao Tome build a thermal power plant that supplies 50 percent of the country’s electricity, he added. Costa, who arrived in Taipei Sunday on a four-day visit, was scheduled to preside over a conference on investment opportunities in his country. His delegation includes his country’s Foreign Minister Natalia Pedro da Costa Umbelina Neto and Jorge Amado, chairman of MLSTP, which is part of the country’s ruling coalition. (By Justin Su and Y.F. Low) ENDITEM /pc DPP willing to normalize Taiwan-China relations Manila, Nov. 9 (CNA) Opposition Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) Chairman Su Tseng-chang said Saturday that his party is willing to enter political talks with China. “The DPP is committed to its responsibilities for the future of Taiwan, is willing to reconcile through dialogue as a means of normalizing cross-strait relations, and desires to be a responsible partner of fellow democracies in the Asia- Pacific,” Su said during a speech at the Council of Asia Liberals and Democrats (CALD) in Manila. Everyone yearns for democracy, and Taiwan’s experience can be a model for China, Su said on the sidelines of the event. Su also touted the democratic accomplishments his party has made, saying that Taiwan joined the Philippines and South Korea in leading the third wave of democratization in East Asia between 2000 and 2008 when the party was in power. “We have worked closely with our friends in CALD to promote democracy, human rights and freedom throughout the region. Now I am very pleased to see that CALD has become the most important party alliance in Asia,” he said. Some Asian democracies are now fighting democratic setbacks, Su said, citing Taiwan as an example. “We now see some old practices coming back to life,” he added. Globalization since the late 1990s has brought both opportunities and challenges to all democracies in the world, Su said, adding that many people want to relive the “good old days” and support past regimes in exchange for a more secure economic environment. “In some countries, such as my own, the democratic formalities still exist, but the substance is otherwise,” he said. The chairman also expressed confidence in the DPP’s success in mayoral races in Taiwan’s five special municipalities as part of the seven-in-one elections to be held in December 2014, saying that his party has more public support than the ruling Kuomintang. Su arrived in Manila Nov. 8 and is scheduled to return to Taiwan Nov. 10. (By Emerson Lim and James Lee) ENDITEM/J UIA denies attempts to exert pressure upon Uzbekistan airways Ukraine International Airlines denies attempts to exert pressure upon Uzbekistan airways and considers such-like statements of the Embassy of Uzbekistan to Ukraine and Uzbekistan airways – Uzbekistan`s national carrier – to be aimed at maintaining the Uzbek airline`s monopoly position on air transportation market between Ukraine and Uzbekistan. The press release of the Embassy of Uzbekistan to Ukraine dated November 11, 2013, states that “Ukraine International Airlines… exert pressure upon the Uzbek party in order to obtain specific slots at Tashkent International airport” which is in opposition to the facts. UIA started working upon launching UIA-coded non-stop scheduled flight en route Kiev – Tashkent – Kiev in early 2013. To embody the intention of establishing air connection between Ukraine and Uzbekistan, Ukrainian carrier submitted all the documents required to be licensed to operate flights. In accordance with the requirements of the national legislation of the Republic of Uzbekistan UIA branched out a representative office and appointed a representative. According to the international requirements UIA directed a slot request to operate two weekly flights between Kiev and Tashkent. Since UIA is a network carrier between the East and the West, the North and the South, and makes its flight schedule so as to provide passengers with maximum comfort and optimal connections at Kiev Boryspil International airport, UIA requested nighttime landing and take-off slots at 10:40 p.m. and 0:55 a.m. (UTC) respectively. The airline`s position was flexible enough – UIA expressed offered to take any slot +/- 1 hour and any weekday (except two days in a row). Simultaneously, the carrier worked upon obtaining similar slots within the period of IATA Winter 2013/2014 schedule. After lengthy negotiations UIA obtained compromise slots to operate flights in the Summer 2013 season in late September 2013 (one month prior to the end of the summer schedule), which actually meant 6 flights` operation without being licensed to operate flights at any later dates. Both late slots` provision and unavailability of information on flights` operation within the approaching winter season deprived UIA of the opportunity to launch flights en route Kiev – Tashkent. Simultaneously, the Uzbek part did not provide UIA with the slots requested for the winter season. Motivating the denial to provide the slots needed with technical inability to handle UIA flights during the requested period, the Uzbek part offered to handle the Ukrainian carrier`s flights in the daytime (4:00 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. UTC) within the period of Winter 2013/2014 schedule. UIA-coded flights` operation within the specified period of time is senseless in terms of ensuring transit flows via Kiev Boryspil International airport – the rapidly developing hub. UIA casts serious doubts on Tashkent International airport`s reasoning. Having conducted a thorough study of the airport’s handling processes and procedures UIA arrived at the conclusion that the airport had sufficient resources and reserves to handle UIA flights within the periods indicated. The airport schedule indicates the requested time period is a “peak hour”. UIA has repeatedly demonstrated its willingness to compromise by changing both hours and weekdays of UIA-coded flights` arrival and departure time. Tashkent International airport took a tough stand demonstrating disinterest in providing UIA with the required slots and, consequently, unwillingness to let the Ukrainian carrier enter Uzbekistan`s air transportation market. “Ever since its establishment in 1992 – for over 21 years of operations on international air transportation markets and partnership with airports worldwide – UIA has been acting through negotiations, within legal environment and in strict compliance with business principles, and thus always managed to strike a happy medium, – noted Evgeniya Satska, UIA Corporate Press Secretary. – We reckon UIA and Tashkent International airport are unable to arrive at mutually acceptable decision since the airport and Uzbekistan airways belong within one holding company and intend to preserve the Uzbek national carrier`s monopoly position. UIA is willing to cooperate, ready to be flexible and to carry on with negotiations. The airline`s policy involves, foremost, ensuring passengers` comfort and reasonable rates which is possible under conditions of healthy competition only. We hope to come up with the solution soon and thus to provide passengers with an opportunity to quickly and easily reach the Uzbek capital on board of the leading Ukrainian carrier”.
