amental consumer tastes are also changing, with a growing preference for diverse types of holiday experience. City, beach and traditional packages will all remain important, but the higher levels of growth will be in more differentiated holiday sectors Geo and Eco tourism. Bangladesh has attractive Geo and Eco tourism attractions. These specialized sectors also tend to attract less price sensitive customers, prepared to pay a premium for a great holiday experience. taged annually in Dhaka under one roof, DTM provides a unique opportunity for the whole travel trade industry to meet, network, negotiate, conduct business and stay abreast with the latest developments in the global industry in general and Bangladesh travel industry in particular. Although Bangladesh is not currently included in itineraries with neighboring countries, some tour operators are actively promoting " Bangladesh Only" itineraries of various duration. Albeit there is large scope to showcase wide variety of Bangladesh products, marketing is currently done on a very limited scale. DTM aims to encourage every travel company, operator, hotel and destination to take real action and show consumers that Bangladesh has attractive tourism products. We are working to ensure exhibitor and visitor satisfaction. At the end of each event, we conduct programmes to gauge feedback from industry players. Post show research has revealed that Dhaka Travel Mart has received very high satisfaction levels from both exhibitors and visitors. Following DTM 2011, we want to improve the visitor footprint throughout the show.
