YANGON, 21 November 2013: Myanmar’s Ministry of Hotels and Tourism
reports tourist arrivals increased 83% since October 2010.
According to the announcement, there were about 800,000 tourist
arrivals in 2010 and more than 1.5 million tourists by October this
year. The count covered tourist arrivals at Yangon, Mandalay, Bagan,
Nay Pyi Taw and overland border checkpoints.
The country could reach 1.9 million this year, or even touch the 2
million mark, although Yangon has been beset by security scares after
two bomb blasts in the capital last month.
