Although a million tourists visit the east African country of Tanzania every year, the government has said it is keen to more than double the number. Efforts are underway to attract visitors from China, the world's most populous country and its second largest economy. But some local people are unhappy that they are prevented from living or growing crops in the country's vast game reserves. RFI spoke to an official of the Natural Resources and Tourism Ministry about some of these issues during a recent visit to Paris.
