Well I did read that Turkey was working in partnership with the TRNC to increase the Tourist Trade!



How about this for one method of doing just that?

"Firstly it is cheap - with online pimps offering package deals including air fares, taxis, drinks and sexual services more cheaply than just the sexual services in Istanbul"



What a winner!

@ msg1, Bradus: Here's another quote from the same article:



(...) The Mediterranean Institute of Gender studies (MIGS) made several other suggestions to tackle human trafficking and the rampant sex tourism industry in both north and south, (...)



BOTH NORTH AND SOUTH, Bradus, but you didn't want to read that, eh?

I read the whole article Dutch. I simply referred to what it said about the North because I'm on a North Cyprus Forum!!!! I am also not interested in what happens in the South because I didn't live there, holiday there or have any friends there that would be interested in the article.



Why is it when people say anything negative about the North is it greeted (as if this answer is constructive or even relevant anyway) with an answer like "well it happens in the South too"



So what.............you live in the TRNC don't you? Does the fact that it happens in the South make it OK that it happens in the North? Diversion tactic at best. Certainly not relevant to the report.
