Contest regulations
The Challenge
You must create a unique and memorable slogan for the tourism industry of the Kyrgyz Republic.The one which local and international travel agencies (as well as the Kyrgyz Government people responsible for this part of our economy) will pick up and use to identify Kyrgyzstan on the world travel market.
The slogan must only be in words. When using the internet form please write it all into the proposal form.
Should you wish to add a graphic sketch to your slogan or provide an explanation (a «legend», a description of the desired context for the use of the slogan etc.), you can do it in the second field provided in the form.
Some Advice
Your slogan must make sense first of all to foreign tourists. For example, we have nothing against the use of Manas as a symbol of Kyrgyzstan, but this legendary figure and his role in the Kyrgyz culture is evident to hardly even 1 per cent of all the people who come to travel around this country. So do not focus on symbols which are well known domestically but hardly evident to outsiders.We all know about «Celestial Mountains», «The Silk Route», «nomads» etc. Again, we have nothing against the creative use of these symbols in developing the slogan. However we would recommend you to view the task wider and not necessarily stick to the national symbolism. Maybe the optimal solution lies in an entirely different area — be creative!
Legal Terms and Conditions of The Contest to Create Slogans for The Tourism Industry of the Kyrgyz Republic
Below are the terms and conditions of the contest to create slogans for the tourism industry of the Kyrgyz Republic (the «Contest»), which are legally binding for all the participants of the Contest that:- have registered through the website www.stan.kg to participate in the Contest by submitting slogan proposals or have otherwise submitted their Contest proposals («Bidders»)" rel="nofollow">http://1zhengji.com/-->近日，吉尔吉斯斯坦举办旅游主题品牌口号大赛。举办此活动，是因为吉尔吉斯斯坦至今还没有官方旅游主题品牌口号，这种品牌口号可以有效吸引游客前往吉国旅游。
其他国家长期以来都在使用主题品牌口号，以强调自己国家的旅游特色。 比如，非洲喀麦隆的品牌口号是：非洲的所有都在这儿。这个品牌口号呼吁来非洲旅游的游客首选喀麦隆，可以在这里找到与非洲有关的一切。德国的旅游品牌口号是：经济实惠 热情好客。让潜在游客不要害怕来德国旅游。伊朗的品牌口号是：你被邀请了！表示伊朗不是一个封闭的国家。在吉尔吉斯斯坦品牌口号竞赛网站www.stan.kg上，发布了一些国家的品牌口号并进行了专业翻译，以便参与者可以参考这些典型案例。
起初，最优品牌口号奖的奖金是5000美元。现在又追加了奖金，除了最优奖以外，还有3项额外的奖，每项1000元美金。
第一项额外奖励是：针对前苏联国家游客的俄语品牌口号，最优者可以获得1000美元奖金。因为伊塞克湖是前苏联国家游客最感兴趣的地方之一，他们需要俄语的并且符合他们文化的品牌口号。
这个品牌口号的重点放在伊塞克湖的度假（沙滩、疗养院和短期旅行）和积极旅行（极限和冬季旅游）。
第二项额外奖励是：英语品牌口号，奖金是1000美元。这个类别的品牌口号针对非俄语国家游客进行宣传。这类游客主要是喜欢吉尔吉斯斯坦的历史文化、生态环境旅游，以及吉尔吉斯斯坦作为小众旅游地吸引他们。
第三项额外奖励是：品牌口号作者奖。该作者成功宣传了某个旅游产品。
比赛结果于4月25日公示，提交作品截止日期是4月15日24:00。
