International Register (Updated March 5, 2021)
Last updated: March 5, 2021 © Mark L. DeBard, MD, Registrar & International Lilac Society Freek Vrugtman, Registrar Emeritus Assistant Registrars: Claire Fouquet, David Gressley, Tatyana Polyakova International Register and Checklist of Cultivar names in the Genus Syringa L. (Oleaceae) (“Work-in-Progress” Lilac Register) For information on title, copyright, address, table of content, acknowledgements, historical overview, and introduction see Introductory Pages. RELEASE NOTE: This release includes updates to the main Register PDF and Excel files, including a massive revision to the Russian cultivar information as a result of a detailed review by our Assistant Registrar, Tatyana Polyakova. In particular, the Latvian cultivars have been updated and many Kravchenko cultivars from Uzbekistan have been added or revised. Also, multiple cultivars from Kazakhstan as well as those of Makedonskaya and Ihara have been updated or added. In addition, the Registrars have decided to maintain the British English format of cultivar names, based on 40 years of tradition and worldwide usage of the names, while converting the text to American English. This primarily affects abbreviations in the cultivar names, such that in British English, Dr, Mr, Mrs, and Ms are all written without periods after them, but in both British and American English, Mons. and Pres. do have periods. There are actually rules governing this. This release is the basis for the identically dated printed hardcopy release of the Register. It has 3561 entries including 1223 registered lilacs (in bold), 640 more with established but non- registered names, and 669 more with non-established names. There are 1025 entries with synonyms or rejected or unacceptable names. -

Perspectives on the Potential for Zambia's Tourism Promotion
Journal of Tourism and Hospitality Management, ISSN 2328-2169 April 2014, Vol. 2, No. 4, 155-160 D DAVID PUBLISHING The Business of Creativity and Creative Arts for Business: Perspectives on the Potential for Zambia’s Tourism Promotion Venkatesh Seshamani University of Zambia, Lusaka, Zambia The Zambian government has identified tourism as one of the sectors that have the potential to promote growth and reduce poverty. Zambia does have a considerable comparative advantage in the tourism sector. However, to date, not enough has been done to translate that comparative advantage into competitive advantage. This paper discusses a number of ways in which Zambia’s tourism sector can be more effectively promoted with a particular emphasis on the development of the creative arts. The country needs to provide incentives and opportunities for Zambia’s artists and also be able to aggressively market its tourist attractions to the outside world by developing comprehensive, innovative, and cost-effective packages to potential tourists that will provide them with memorable, authentic, and edifying experiences to carry home. Keywords: creative arts, tourism, Zambia Introduction We live today in a globalized world characterized by open economies and intense competition. The growth and development of countries, therefore, largely depend on the extent of competitive advantage they are able to develop. Underlying competitive advantage is the comparative advantage that countries possess. Many countries possess comparative advantage in many areas, but, owing to a number of factors, external and/or internal, the comparative advantage does not get commensurately translated into competitive advantage. Zambia’s Sixth National Development Plan has identified tourism as one of the sectors that have the potential to promote growth and reduce poverty. -
