30 billion dollar loss in tourism income

Turkish tourism is coming to life and occupancy rates are increasing this year but it does not bring money in return since it does not attract western tourists with "money."

Of course, I am not a tourism expert but I will look at the problem from a different perspective. The problem cannot be solved by only increasing promotion campaigns. A solution can be found by looking at the subject "from another perspective." In other words, by looking at our image in the society of the tourists with "money" whom we expect to come to our country.

There are many tourists but

President of the Turkish Tourism Investors Association (TYD) Oya Narin, spoke to daily Hürriyet the other day.
"Tourism was at its worst stage in 2016. In 2017, it looks as if there is improvement. But there is a big decline in income. We will feel it much more by the end of this year. We expect a 30 billion dollar loss in the tourism sector when we include the next two years with the last year!" said Narin.
Narin also said they prepared a plan to improve the situation and will present it to the government. It will surely help but is the solution only a matter of a "plan?"

Not only to boost tourism but also in order to increase our efficiency in foreign politics we should reconsider Turkey's perception to the outside world and improve it.

But of course, if we say "We are faced by a crusade mentality, they cannot stand Turkey's development" then there is nothing else to do. That is the point, where words fail.

Well-educated and wealthy

The tourists who came to Turkey in the bad period of 2016, spent $602 on average, whereas Turkish tourists who went abroad spent $973!

Why is that?
