​The Deputy Minister of Tourism Mr. Fish Mahlalela will officially open the 2023 National Tourism Careers Expo (NTCE) on 29 September 2023 at the Joburg Expo Centre in Nasrec – Gauteng Province.

Today, we gathered here to mark the World Tourism Day under the inspiring and forward-thinking theme, “Tourism and Green Investment”, it behoves us all to appreciate our strides we made thus far in making an enterprise for everyone.​

Tourism extends beyond simply powering economies and creating jobs or offering wanderlust explorers unforgettable experiences; it is a formidable force in building cohesive societies. It facilitates the breaking down of barriers of race, gender and class, thus fostering understanding and nurturing the rich tapestry of our shared humanity​
