The country recorded an increase in number of visitors, both domestic and intertiol, as well as an increase in expenditure by tourists. Economic growth and promotiol activities by the tourism authority supported this growth. According to the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC), in 2012, tourism contributed 16.7% to the country's GDP, and accounted for 12.4% of the total employment.
