Atao\u011flu said: \u201cWe are doing our utmost to promote varieties of alternative forms of tourism\u201d. Pointing out that that TRNC is a small country, Atao\u011flu said that it has made significant progress in health and tourism. He said that the Government has provided reconstruction in the sector, and had made efforts to improve alternative forms of tourism, especially in health and sports, which provide significant income to the country.<\/p>\n
He continued, \u201cBecause of the negativities in mass tourism as well as the economic and environmental factors parallel to the changes in the tourism, we have turned to alternative forms of tourism prioritising personal demands. We are striving to promote our university hospitals, IVF centres, medical massage and spa treatments at hotels, as well as the country\u2019s historical and touristic beauty spots at every opportunity.\u201d<\/p>\n
Minister Atao\u011flu said that TRNC was promoted at the World Health Tourism Forum in Jordan in March, and that important meetings were held in order to develop bilateral cooperation.

Stressing that the TRNC attaches great importance to health and sport tourism, Atao\u011flu said that greater global engagement can only be possible with support of Turkey, and thanked Minister \u00c7avu\u015fo\u011flu for the organisation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
