A survey carried out by the Turkish Government Tourist Office reported that near 400.000 Greek Cypriots visited North Cyprus casinos.
The Chairman of the Cyprus Tourism Organization, Photis Photiou, pointed out at the need of offering good quality casinos to tourists in the area, not like the ones that operate in the north. He added that by the end of this year, a study will be submitted to the CTO. The CTO chairman said that Turkish Cypriots have started an intensive campaign to promote the north through exhibitions in the UK. He said that they do not fear competition, because there is no major tour operator at an international level that cooperates with Turkish Cypriot companies.
