Senior Managers Axed By BTB
posted (March 2, 2011)
But while that rough spot in the cruise tourism sector has been evened out - for the time being at least - the transition tremors continue at the Tourism Board.

7news has confirmed that two senior managers at the BTB Lloyd Enriquez and Shakira Tsai-OXLEY were terminated today. Tsai, who's been at the Tourism Board for 17 years - and was the Director of Revenue Collection, the Registrar Of Hotels and Time Shares told us that even though no reason was given for her termination - she doesn't believe in acting on emotion or bad mouthing anyone, and so, chose not to comment.

She did say that, quote: "you can never expect stuff like this." It is a sharp downturn for Tsai-Oxley who - one year ago at this time was the Acting Director.

Then, in October, her fortunes started to fall when she was replaced as Director Of Marketing. The other manager who was terminated is Lloyd Enriquez, the director of destination planning. Enriquez who had been at the BTB since 2003, confirmed that he was terminated but said it was premature to discuss the reasons. BTB did not have comment.
