The number of foreign visitors to Romania is 2.5 million a year of whom 1.7 million come on business trips and just 800,000 are tourists and holidaymakers, vice-president of Romania's National Association of Travel Agencies (ANAT) Alin Burcea told the conference "Connecting Europe through Innovation" on Thursday.
Putting the finger on other sore spots, the ANAT vice-president said that Romania is unable to spend the promotional budget as only 1.8 million out of 5.5 million euro have been used last year, and that its hotel resource is lacking, requiring relevant investment.
