The Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA) has announced a restructuring of its Pacific Division. Effective immediately, our current operations in Sydney have been closed down and the three staff positions in that office have been made redundant.
Mr. Ian Kennedy, who headed the PATA Pacific Division from 1986 to 1997, has been asked to assume the position of Interim Representative on a temporary basis.
"These changes in the Pacific are a critical part of a multi-phase restructuring for PATA," said Mr. Peter de Jong, PATA President and CEO. "The Pacific area is of vital importance to our Association. We will be adopting a new approach to our presence in the Pacific and to the delivery of our membership services." |
