Luxury Travel Vietnam Highlights Experiences at ITB Berlin 2013

Vietnam's Fist Luxury Tour Operator Seeks Two Digit Growths from Germany Market.

Hanoi, Vietnam, February 9, 2013 -- Luxury Travel Ltd. will showcase its expertise and teach luxury tour operators and travel partners at ITB Berlin with VNAT from 6 to 10 March 2013.

ITB Berlin is the world's leading travel trade show and takes place in Berlin, Germany from 6-10 March 2012. Luxury Travel Ltd. (http://www.luxurytravelvietnam.com) is a long established Asian specialist in luxury privately guided and fully bespoke holidays in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar and Thailand.

The representatives of Luxury Travel Ltd. from the London, Berlin and Hanoi offices will participate in ITB Berlin as an exhibitor. The aim is to promote Vietnamese high-end tourism products in the leisure luxury segment and to find out buyers who want to sell unique experiences for discerning travelers. Luxury travel is being redefined as experiences rather than brands.

For many travel experts, Vietnam has all of these to offer to German tourists who, according to Ha, pick Vietnam for their vacations for safety, affordable prices, authenticity, tropical warm weather, and convenient flight connections.

Vietnam in particular increasingly is being recognized as a destination for high-end global tourists, especially those coming from Western European countries with direct flights, such as France, the UK, and Germany. Vietnam now has world class hotels and resorts, beaches and cuisine, in addition to its natural beauty, rich history and traditional culture.

The country receives 100,000 German tourists yearly, and the number of tourists increases year after year. The new slogan of Vietnam tourism -- "Vietnam - Timeless Charm," was created with an aim to attract long haul travelers from Germany and elsewhere, who wish to experience its defining characteristics: Thrills, nature, heritage, festival, pristine, bliss, scenery and essence.

He added, "With its natural attractions, high-end services, luxury hotels and resorts, and an impressive convention center, Vietnam is set to receive the luxury, leisure or business traveler from the world over. Tourists traveling to Vietnam are looking for a more authentic experience and seek to have a deeper understanding of the country's culture, food, history and everyday life."

"Headquartered in Vietnam, with our representative office in Berlin, the biggest travel show in the world such as ITB Berlin 2013 is a great chance for us to establish our business relationship with all of you who look for reliable full travel service agencies and luxury tour operators." said Pham Ha, founder and CEO of Luxury Travel Ltd.

FRA response to US Global Warming Report

FRA analysis partner Peter Collins offers his response to the US Department of Agriculture report into global warming and its impact on forestry.

Seattle, United States, February 9, 2013 -- Forestry Research Associates (FRA) has issued a response to the recent US Department of Agriculture report on the impact of global warming on forestry.

The report compiled over 1,000 scientific studies and is designed to serve as a roadmap for managing forests in North America in the years ahead. Unfortunately, it has some difficult truths to convey, including news that the area burned by wildfires is expected to at least double within the next 25 years, while insect infestations look set to become an even bigger problem, affecting more land per year than fires.

Peter Collins, analysis partner at FRA, offered his view: "America's forestry industry has the potential to provide raw materials for trade and incomes for thousands of employees. But perhaps its most important responsibility is to provide a sustainable resource that can help to tackle global warming".

"We all know it's true but it is easy to forget the role that trees play in managing and absorbing the planet's emissions. Forests really do act as the world's lungs and this report highlights the problems that lie in wait if we refuse to step up and accept the responsibility that is inherent in managing forests."

IAPAM's Physician hCG Training Echoes the Benefits Showcased in Dr. Oz's February 6 Segment

The IAPAM has trained over 800 physicians on how to safely offer hCG for weight loss, and well over 33,000 patients have successfully lost weight using the IAPAM's Exclusive hCG Protocol. The core principles of the IAPAM's New and Improved Clean Start hCG Weight Loss Training are consistent with those showcased by Dr. Oz in his recent February 6th, 2013, segment on hCG for weight loss. After challenging a leading hCG physician last year to complete a study of the success rates and benefits of the hCG Protocol for weight loss, Dr. Oz commented that a physician supervised hCG protocol, like that taught by the IAPAM, does work for many patients.

Las Vegas, Nevada, USA - February 9, 2013 -- In his February 6th, 2013 segment on hCG for weight loss (http://www.doctoroz.com/videos/new-hcg-diet), Dr. Oz presented the data supplied by a leading medical weight management physician, that patients can lose weight successfully with the use of pharmaceutical hCG (human Chorionic Gonadotropin) while under a doctor's strict supervision.

In a follow up study conducted by Dr. Sheri Emma, Dr. Oz highlighted the study's findings that patients following a strict, medically supervised hCG Protocol effectively lost weight. "It is the diet that drives weight loss, but it is the hCG injections that affect how one loses the weight," Dr Emma explained. "hCG helps the patients keep the weight off because muscle is retained during the diet, unlike other diets that typically result in muscle loss." This makes sense, because after people lose 30lbs they should require less calories, but in fact, as confirmed through Resting Metabolic Rate testing, patients can eat a similar amount of calories after the conclusion of an hCG program. This is due to the muscle being retained during the protocol (and muscle burns more calories than fat). "Patients can lose weight with the diet with or without the hCG, but one will keep the weight off longer if one does it with pharmaceutical hCG because it changes one's body composition in favor of muscle over fat."

The IAPAM's New and Improved Clean Start hCG Weight Loss Protocol is based upon the successful protocol originally developed in 1954 by Dr. Simeons, and detailed in his report, Pounds and Inches, and is built around a low calorie diet coupled with the administration of the pharmaceutical grade of the naturally occurring hormone, hCG. The IAPAM's hCG Protocol has been administered safely to over 33,000 patients around the world with consistent weight loss results.

To date, all of the IAPAM's 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 Physician hCG Medical Weight Management seminars have sold out, so to register for the next hCG Training session on March 22, 2013 in Scottsdale, Arizona, please go to http://www.hcgtraining.com, or contact the IAPAM at 1-800-219-5108 ext 708.
