This is a very important badge. I haven’t found the designer of the badge yet! This badge has fulfilled its historical mission. Although some of the original branches after restructuring in various places are still in use, it is not legal from a legal perspective! Because the name of this unit has disappeared since it was restructured and listed!
The unit represented by this badge is because all branches across the country are state-owned capital. In the late 1990s, state-owned enterprises were restructured . In those years, because of the relatively large differences in opinions among provinces about participating in the newly established enterprise group's participation in shares, the China National Tourism Administration was abolished. No more badges with this name! At that time, the international travel agencies in various provinces and cities were called China International Travel Service xxx branches. In the era when the tourism bureau had not yet been established, they were affiliated to the foreign affairs offices of the local governments. In today's terms, they were national civil servants, and the professional title for reception work was called translators! At that time, there were only three travel agencies in the country, namely CITS, CTS, Overseas Chinese Travel Service and branches in various places. Most of the leaders are veteran cadres who came back from Yan'an before the founding of the People's Republic of China! When I kept my job back then, I used a badge with a number on the back, so I could enter any major hotel or friendship store in Beijing to shop! Used instead of work permit! It was an era of reform, an era when Shenzhen was just starting out!
There are so many memories, let me take my time!
