Tourism Minister Francisco Javier Garcia, in his "debut" in the industry on occasion of the opening of the 22nd Asonahores Trade Show at the Dominican Fiesta Hotel, promised to be a "true player" in the industry. "Tourism is not something that is born, it is made," he told those attending the ceremony.
