Mohamed King-Koroma Abu Bakarr Turay Acting Statistician General Officer-in-Charge, Economic Statistics Division iii 1.0 INTRODUCTION Tourism is arguably the largest industry and one of the fastest growing industries in the World today. It is estimated to represent over 4 trillion dollars, or 10 percent of the World’s Gross Domestic Product (WTTC Stat.2006). The industry supplies over 230 million jobs and over $800 billion in tax revenues internationally (UN/WTO Stat.2007). Tourism is a major generator of foreign exchange revenues and facilitates regional and international trade and investment linkages. It is the principal Foreign Exchange earner and the backbone of the economy of many small states and island states like the Gambia, Seychelles, Maldives, etc. Sierra Leone has strong potentials for tourism industry. It has excellent beaches and islands, mountains and rich biodiversity, interesting wildlife, friendliness of the people and rich socio-cultural heritage; and it occupies a special place in the world history of anti-slavery movement as ‘the land of freedom’ – hence the name Freetown of it’s Capital City. Since the 1980s, the country has been developing a small but, a thriving tourism industry. The end of the civil conflict in 2002 led to renewed arrivals by business travelers, as well as members of the Diaspora visiting friends and relatives. This in turn has stimulated some investment in the hotel and guesthouse infrastructure in Freetown. For example, the Chinese investment in Bintumani Hotel; the NASSIT investment in Tourism infrastructure and the construction of new hotels such as Hotel Bamoi, and Hotel Kimbima, etc by other domestic investors all form part of increased investment in the tourism sector in the country. Within the framework of the National Strategy for the Development of Statistics (NSDS), the Government of Sierra Leone in 2008 approved the deployment of Statisticians from Statistics Sierra Leone (SSL) to eight line ministries including the Ministry of Tourism to help collect and compile statistical indicators in support of decision-making. This bulletin is part of the effort under the NSDS to provide data on the Tourism industry in Sierra Leone. This Bulletin is the first in a series of bulletins that will follow year after year. Consequently, data included in this bulletin have an official character. Therefore, any correction or changes received after this will be included in the next edition of the Bulletin. The main topics covered in this bulletin include data on tourist arrivals, country of origin of tourists, hotel occupancy rates, tourist expenditure etc. 1.1 The Legal and Strategic Context of Tourism Development in Sierra Leone The Government of Sierra Leone recognizing the importance of tourism development established the Hotels and Tourist Board in 1964. In these early years, the growth and development of the tourism industry in the country was relatively slow and lacked a specific direction. There was no Act or policy to guide tourism development in the country. Key industry actors were left wholly unregulated. This state of affairs continued for close to a 1 decade. In 1973, however, the GoSL decided to establish the Ministry of Tourism and Cultural Affairs (MoTCA) in order to harness the immense tourism potential in Sierra Leone,
