Turkey will lure the Chinese into gambling

Turkey needs to open a casino for the Chinese so that they can come to the country to rest.

With such proposal, the Association of Hoteliers and Investors of Turkey (TÜROB) spoke. The organization presented a whole program to attract Chinese tourists to the country.

“Annually more than 260 million Chinese people travel. And less than one million of this number came to us. Therefore, we must do everything in our power to attract the Chinese tourists to come into our country. The Chinese are traveling to Bulgaria and Romania at the moment, because they have casinos, and we don’t” The Association mentioned.

According to the head of TÜROB, Timur Bayindir, it would be possible to open a casino for owners of foreign passports on the island of Iasiada, which is part of the Princes’ Islands.

Also, note that the proposal is quite reasonable – the Chinese adore gambling and they will willingly play in the casino, and many of them especially choose this country for their holidays.
