Besides Bangladeshs' natural beauty and historical monuments, the people are the countrys biggest asset for tourism. Even in Sundarban, where visitors marvel at the diverse wildlife and tranquil scenic beauty, the resouce collectors add an additional point of attraction . Millions of people depend on this ever-changing wilderness, ruled by tides and tigers. Tourists traveling through the maze of mangrove creeks may withness fishermen busy on their tiny wooden boats, grasscutters in the sea-facing meadows, wood and palm leave cutters and the famous honey collectors. The friendliness of the people of the forest are fascinating not only for photographers.
Skill training for hospitality sector -1

The ultimate goal of this sector should be to create jobs for job placement. The importance of growth of this specialised skill is possible by educating people and fine tuning their prior learning, to maintain the level of standard and services required. Hospitality related establishments need to put serious thought into the development of this sector. Certification and recognition, with the support of industry apprenticeship, is essential for better results.
