Opportunities- The tourism
development will be helpful

huge amount of money and
resources. The

funds and resources
provided by the
stakeholders can be used
for the development of
Qatar tourism sector. The
stakeholders of Qatar
tourism consists of media,
tourism professionals or
investors (Ellis and
goals can create a clash
of interest.
 The main demerit of
private and public
partnership in the
context of Qatar tourism
is the bidding of higher
cost (Rodriguez, 2018).
 The decision-making
process of Qatar tourism

involvement of private
and public sector
members.

among private and
public sector employees
