Hong Kong's Tourism Board and Travel Industry Council have jointly revoked the licenses of several travel agencies and tour guides for forcing tourists to shop. The move comes after investigations into incidents involving mainland inbound tour groups in February and April this year. The involved travel agencies include 'Wanmei Travel Co., Ltd.', 'Baron Travel Agency Co., Ltd.', 'Terence Travel Limited', 'Baron Travel Services Limited', and 'Go Go Ming Travel Services'. Tour guides Sun Guanying and Sun Kwun-ying also had their licenses revoked. The regulatory bodies stressed their zero-tolerance approach to protecting tourists' rights and maintaining Hong Kong's tourism reputation.
