다보스, 스위스, 2026년 1월 25일 -- 다보스에서 열린 2026 세계경제포럼(World Economic Forum) 연례총회에서 사우디아라비아 왕국 관광부의 아흐메드 알카티브(Ahmed Al-Khateeb) 장관이 세계 지도자들에게 분명한 메시지를 전달했다. 점점 더 분절되는 세계에서 성장, 회복탄력성, 그리고 인간적 연결을 주도하려면 경제 인프라로서 관광을 이끌어야 한다고 밝혔다. 세계경제포럼 기간 중 진행된 여러 행사에서 알카티브 장관은 관광이 더 이상 선택적 산업으로 취급돼서는 안 되며, 의도적으로 계획되고 거버넌스가 이뤄질 경우 다각화를 지원하고 장기 투자를 유치하며 지역 전반에 포용적 고용을 창출할 수 있는 전략적 시스템으로 다루어야 한다고 강조했다. 알카티브 장관은 "2030년까지 국제 관광객 수가 약 20억 명에 이를 것으로 예상되는 가운데, 지도자들이 고민해야 할 질문은 관광이 성장할 것인가가 아니라 책임감 있게 확장될 수 있는가이다"라며 "관광이 경제•사회•문화 인프라로 설계될 때, 단순한 국경 간 이동을 넘어 다각화, 회복탄력성, 장기적 가치를 창출하는 강력한 엔진이 된다"
ダボス(スイス), 2026年1月25日 -- ダボスで開催された2026年度世界経済フォーラム年次総会(World Economic Forum Annual Meeting 2026)において、サウジアラビア王国のAhmed Al-Khateeb観光相閣下は、世界の指導者に向けた明確なメッセージとして、「分断化が進む世界において、観光が成長、レジリエンス、そして人と人とのつながりを促進するためには、経済インフラとして主導権を握らなければなりません」と述べました。 同大臣はフォーラムでの講演で、観光はもはや裁量的な分野として扱われるのではなく、意図を持って計画と管理が行われ、多様化の促進、長期的な投資の誘致、地域全体における包括的な雇用の創出を担う戦略的なシステムとして扱われるべきであると述べています。 また、Ahmed Al-Khateeb閣下は、「2030年までに20億人の外国人観光客の来訪が見込まれるなか、指導者に問われているのは、観光業の成長ではなく、責任ある規模の拡大の実現にほかなりません。観光が経済的、社会的、文化的インフラとして設計されることにより、単なる国境を超えた移動にとどまらず、多様化、レジリエンス、長期的な価値創造に向けた強力な原動力となりうるのです」とも言及しています。 なお、同大臣はサウジアラビアの「ビジョン2
