Previously, Joshi served as the CEO of the Board in 2019 when tourist arrivals reached around 1.2 million. However, his term ended due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which significantly impacted global travel and tourism. In his new term, Joshi emphasized the need for increased research and development in the tourism sector, particularly in areas requiring innovation and a deeper understanding of market demands.
He shared that a well-drafted action plan for the next four years is in place and that he will soon unveil a comprehensive strategy focusing on international promotion, enhancing tourism infrastructure, and public-private partnerships. A key challenge identified by Joshi is the shortage of skilled human resources, which he plans to address through collaboration with relevant stakeholders.
In the coming years, Joshi aims to not only meet the government's tourist target but also to elevate Nepal's profile as a premier travel destination globally.
