The sites visited are Yanlensun, Mabakeh, Bombali and Kerefey Island. Boat racing is prominent in these sites, hence the Ministry wants to fit it in the Yearlong campaign.

The team led by the Permanent Secretary, Edward Kwame Yankson and include the Director of Culture, Foday Jalloh and the Deputy Director of Tourism, Idrissa Bangura called on Paramount Chief Bai Shebora Sheba Gbereh III and chiefdom stakeholders informing them that they were there to see and assess what they have and how the sites can be developed.

The Permanent Secretary informed the gathering that the Ministry has declared this year as the year of domestic tourism and they have started it with the Explore and Discover Month which entails going to places, exploring their potentials and packaging them to attract local and international tourists. For the boat racing (regatta), the PS called on the private sector to invest in it as it is an initiative that is appreciated by the Ministry.
