Caribbean Tourism Director of the Year: May-Ling Chun, St Maarten
St Maarten isn’t just a beloved destination or a regional hub — it’s a trend-setter for much of the Caribbean; and the Dutch Caribbean destination has been a leader in its tourism reopening, with a phased approach that kicked off in the early summer and culminated with the welcoming back of American travelers in August. Much of the island’s success, both in reopening and attracting a growing number of returning visitors, is thanks to the expert management of May-Ling Chun, Director of Tourism at the St Maarten Tourist Bureau, one of the Caribbean’s most respected tourism executives.
