Dear TICA Members,
I am most honored to have been elected president of the
association and shall do my utmost to maintain TICA's recognition as a well
respected professional association of the tourism industry. Thank you for
your confidence, and for your team collaboration I hope to receive.
An association is as strong as its members want it to
be, and I invite participation from all, by ways of commenting, suggesting
and volunteering. Our Marketing, Membership & PR and Services Development
committees are very enthusiastic in pursuing projects and working towards our
mutual goals.
During my 2-year term, I hope to work with members and
allied organizations to enhance business, elevate service capabilities,
and build sustainability of TICA as a
valued authority of the M.I.C.E. industry. I strongly believe that TICA is an assembly of highly
capable and experienced professionals, and hope to draw upon this advantage
for the development of our association.
My direct
communication is president@tica.or.th
With all good
wishes,
Sumate Sudasna

TICA Gets First President from Private Sector
|
|||||||||||||||||
|
|||||||||||||||||
TICA has elected its first President
from the Thai private sector. Khun Sumate Sudasna, Managing Director of Creative Destination
Management (CDM), was elected unanimously by TICA’s 40-member board of
directors at its first annual meeting on 08 April 2009.
Since its formation in 1984, the presidency of
TICA, has been traditionally held by the governor of the Tourism Authority of
Thailand. In a brief statement following his election, Khun Sumate noted that
his priority agenda during his two-year tenure would be to rally everyone in
the industry to restore confidence in the Thai MICE sector.
He said, “These are trying times
for Thai travel & tourism which is facing the twin challenges of both
local and global upheaval. We are going to have to deal with this as best as
we can. No-one can afford a long and drawn-out downturn in business.”
Khun Sumate entered the Thai travel industry
in 1974 and has been specifically involved for 25 years in the M.I.C.E.
sector. He set up CDM Thailand, a destination management company and professional
convention organiser, in 1988, and has served TICA in various positions since
its founding.
Khun Sumate has also headed the Society
of Incentive and Travel Executives
He said, “I plan to be a hands-on
president and truly represent all of TICA’s 281 members. I am sure they will
respond with the same professionalism and enthusiasm that has helped
Khun Sumate said he
would also seek to:
|
|||||||||||||||||
·
Focus TICA’s efforts in developing business from domestic
sources, i.e. local corporations for events in
·
Enhance efforts on buyer relationship development
·
Work closely with both the TAT and the
Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau on trade shows, road shows and
other promotional activities
·
Work with other Thai trade and industry bodies
on business and service capacity development opportunities.
As part of his first
initiatives a TICA President, Khun Sumate “Met the Press” at
an informal press-meet session held on Wednesday, 29 April 2009 at the InterContinental
Hotel.
