Tourism chief to Sydneysiders: 'Stop whingeing'

Mon, 10/24/2011 - 11:56 — Anonymous Are Sydneysiders really a bunch of
whingers? They really are, according to the new chief executive of
Destination NSW, Sandra Chipchase, who believes locals' propensity to whinge
is a stumbling block to selling the city. "When I was interstate the great
sport was to ask Sydneysiders, 'so how are things up north or down
south?'" she told the Sydney Morning Herald. "After all the whingeing had
stopped, you'd think, 'you're doing yourself brand damage.'" The
newly formed state government agency is now developing "tool kits" for
locals to sell the city. var OutbrainPermaLink =
