Importing hotel staff
Sir,—ln “The Press” this morning the director of planning and
development for the’Government Tourist and Publicity Department is reported as saying that although there are plenty of courses and opportunities for New Zealanders to gain training and qualifications for hotel work, people might have to be imported if needed immediately, say for a big new hotel. Do big hotels materialise unheralded and overnight? Such examples of “planning,” on top of last week’s report of a scheme to encourage Japanese to come here for working holidays, make you wonder whose unemployment problems we are trying to solve — our own or other countries’.—Yours, etc., C. R. HOCKLEY. May 31, 1984.
