Just last week I read a media report of the top 25 islands in the Caribbean for tourism in this covid-19 season…… Dominica did not make the list of 25!
Now this!
Next you going to see another report praising secret bay and fort young.
In my opinion someone is paying a pretty penny for their public relations!!!!
That’s my answer to this…..I never take these reports seriously….. there’s such a thing called “fake news”….some people like me call it public relations. Like they want to put their nose in people business.
How many “authentic guests” to date? When compared to other well established 4 and 5 star hotels in the Caribbean?
Pinch me…..we struggling with covid-19… will Skerrit announce that kempinski help our economy stay afloat?
Hahaha
Fake news orchestrated by the fake government!
I thought this place was closed? But they still get a totally meaningless award? Fake news perhaps?
Question – what does” MICE” mean
ADMIN: Mice: Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions. The article has been updated with definition in the first line.
More delusional outbursts from those with REPROBATE minds.
HOTEP!
After google I found out that MICE = Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions.
Congratulation to Kempinski Dominica on your achievement. We are proud to celebrate you.
But father Cuffy, more than one year they open but I don’t see any customers there. Where are they?
