Look out for safari tours, bargains at Natas fair from Feb 24

asia travel fair

SINGAPORE - Travellers looking for bargains can shop for tour package deals at the National Association of Travel Agents Singapore (Natas) fair, as the travel sector continues its rebound since international borders reopened.

Returning for its 57th edition, the fair will be held from Feb 24 to Feb 26 at Singapore Expo Hall 5.

Travel agencies will form the bulk of the more than 50 exhibitors at the event, along with cruise operators and national tourist organisations from Thailand, Japan and Taiwan.

Visitors can expect a plethora of travel deals and tour packages at the fair, themed “The World of Natas”.

For instance, Chan Brothers Travel will be offering tour packages to China after the recent announcement on its reopening of borders.

Travellers to China will be able to enjoy some of the best-selling destinations pre-Covid-19, such as Beijing, Jiangnan, Yunnan and Fujian.

Mr Jeremiah Wong, senior marketing communications manager for Chan Brothers Travel, told The Straits Times that safari tours are also returning for the first time since the pandemic, and travellers to East Africa can go on a 10-day tour to watch the migration of more than two million animals.

EU Holidays, one of the exhibitors at the upcoming fair, will also be offering package deals to China. The agency also has special curated theme tours like marathon, cycling and fly-cruise packages, said Ms Mandy Chen, marketing manager of EU Holidays.

The Natas travel fair was last held in 2022 after a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic.

Many people are looking to explore the world as travel returns to pre-pandemic levels, said Mr Steven Ler, president of Natas, adding that they can seek advice from the exhibitors at the fair on their holiday needs.

Since Australia’s reopening, there has been an incredible surge of demand from the South and South East Asia region. Forward bookings for Singapore are currently doubling 2019 figures, while in Malaysia, Indonesia, and India, 60 to 80 per cent of bookings are for travel in the next three months*, demonstrating strong consumer confidence.

To convert pent-up demand, facilitate aviation recovery and help Australian tourism return to pre-pandemic levels, Tourism Australia launched its ‘Discover A Great Deal More’ virtual travel fair on 21 April 2022 seizing the popular May and June travel periods. Running until 15 May with validity for 12 months, the fair features 36 airline, online travel agency (OTA) and key distribution partners across the region with an array of travel offers on flights, hotels, tour packages, car rentals and experiences, all of which consumers can find on Australia.com . The campaign, worth more than $1 million, is being promoted via out-of-home, radio, online, print and social media activations and so far is generating a reach of 65.7 million and reminding audiences that Australia is indeed ‘Yours to Explore’.

The Unique Burial of a Child of Early Scythian Time at the Cemetery of Saryg-Bulun (Tuva)

<< Previous page

Pages:  379-406

In 1988, the Tuvan Archaeological Expedition (led by M. E. Kilunovskaya and V. A. Semenov) discovered a unique burial of the early Iron Age at Saryg-Bulun in Central Tuva. There are two burial mounds of the Aldy-Bel culture dated by 7th century BC. Within the barrows, which adjoined one another, forming a figure-of-eight, there were discovered 7 burials, from which a representative collection of artifacts was recovered. Burial 5 was the most unique, it was found in a coffin made of a larch trunk, with a tightly closed lid. Due to the preservative properties of larch and lack of air access, the coffin contained a well-preserved mummy of a child with an accompanying set of grave goods. The interred individual retained the skin on his face and had a leather headdress painted with red pigment and a coat, sewn from jerboa fur. The coat was belted with a leather belt with bronze ornaments and buckles. Besides that, a leather quiver with arrows with the shafts decorated with painted ornaments, fully preserved battle pick and a bow were buried in the coffin. Unexpectedly, the full-genomic analysis, showed that the individual was female. This fact opens a new aspect in the study of the social history of the Scythian society and perhaps brings us back to the myth of the Amazons, discussed by Herodotus. Of course, this discovery is unique in its preservation for the Scythian culture of Tuva and requires careful study and conservation.

Keywords: Tuva, Early Iron Age, early Scythian period, Aldy-Bel culture, barrow, burial in the coffin, mummy, full genome sequencing, aDNA
