Description
Top Of The WiT is a grab of the trendiest news that happened this week in travel, tech and Asia - all condensed into a quick-and-easy nugget-sized podcast.  On this week's episode, we talk about Singapore's tourism projections for the next twelve months and how it forecasts a doubling of tourism receipts compared to last year's inbound traffic.  Then, we discuss an interview with Omer Chehmer, COO and co-founder of Bookaway Group, and how the ground transportation bookings company is preparing-but-not-anchoring on the potential surge in tourists from China. We also chat about ChatGPT and how AI-driven tools can help Singapore's travel and hospitality scene. Hosted by Arvindh and Siew Hoon
