PATA Japan Chapter

過去4年半に亘り、PATA日本支部会長を務めて頂いた東武トップツアーズ株式会社（前、トップツアー株式会社）の足立成雄氏に代わり、9月1日付けにて、株式会社ＪＴＢグローバルマーケティング＆トラベル取締役の吉村　久夫氏にＰＡＴＡ日本支部会長としてご就任頂くことになりました。吉村新会長のリーダーシップのもと、ＰＡＴＡ日本支部としても今後ますますアクティブに事業展開を行っていくと同時にＰＡＴＡのグローバルなネットワークを軸に、世界各国支部及びＰＡＴＡ本部・地域本部ともより連携を深めていきたいと考えております。
In accordance with the resignation of Mr. Shigeo Adachi from Tobu Top Tours Co., Ltd, who served as PATA Japan Chapter Chairman for a four and a half year term, Mr. Hisao Yoshimura, Executive Director, JTB Global Marketing Travel Inc. was elected as Mr. Adachi’s successor. Mr. Yoshimura has been an active member of the PATA Japan Chapter for many years, holding the position of Vice Chairman since 2012. The Board of Directors of PATA Japan Chapter agreed with his chairmanship with confidence in his leadership in accelerating the Japan Chapter’s presence as well as activities reflecting the significant growth of Japanese inbound travel.
