Health Tourism Council calls on President Ak\u0131nc\u0131 to take the initiative in tourism<\/strong><\/p>\n

Combatant:<\/strong> Bringing stakeholders together at the Presidency will be an important start for tourism to become a State policy.<\/p>\n

Raider:<\/strong> I will call for stakeholders to come together.<\/p>\n

Officials of the Cyprus Health Tourism Council visited President Ak\u0131nc\u0131 and asked him to take the initiative to make tourism a state policy.<\/p>\n

Sava\u015fan; \u201cOur demand is that Tourism be a State Policy in essence, not in word!\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

In his speech at the reception, Ahmet Sava\u015fan, Founding President of the Cyprus Health Tourism Council, emphasized that the main purpose of the council is to contribute to tourism in general and health tourism in particular to become a State Policy.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur aim is to ensure that Northern Cyprus, which is preferred only for its sea, sun and sand in many parts of the world, is preferred with its different and rich other features, especially health tourism, sustainable and alternative tourism types and thus increase the added value of the country,\u201d Sava\u015fan said.<\/p>\n

Ahmet Sava\u015fan mentioned that the opening in the government program that Tourism will be a State Policy is important, and pointed out that stakeholders also have duties for this to be realized, and said that they are ready to contribute to ensure that this opening is not in word but in substance.<\/p>\n

The Cyprus Health Tourism Council has a wide representation in the fields of tourism and health...<\/strong><\/p>\n

Explaining that the Cyprus Health Tourism Council was established by successful business people and heads of reputable non-governmental organizations, Sava\u015fan said that the Cyprus Health Tourism Council was accepted on behalf of Northern Cyprus as the 54th member country of the World Health Tourism Council, which was established in Monaco and is a member of 53 countries, including Brazil, Croatia, Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Israel, Japan, Malaysia, England and Greece.<\/p>\n

Sava\u015fan called on Ak\u0131nc\u0131 to bring stakeholders together...<\/strong><\/p>\n

Touching on what needs to be done within the country for the development of Health Tourism, Sava\u015fan said that since the annual turnover in Health Tourism in the world has reached 400 billion USD and the number of people traveling in this context exceeds millions, many countries have made the necessary arrangements to get a share from this important sector.<\/p>\n

In this context, Sava\u015fan called on President Ak\u0131nc\u0131 to bring all stakeholders together to ensure that the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus gets the share it deserves from tourism in general and health tourism in particular.<\/p>\n

Legal regulation and supervision are needed for the development of health tourism...<\/strong><\/p>\n

Stating that quality, international standards, branding, promotion and innovation are of great importance to be successful in health tourism, Sava\u015fan pointed out that especially medical, IVF, elderly and disabled tourism has a great potential for our country.<\/p>\n

Health Tourism should be recognized as one of the main types of tourism...<\/strong><\/p>\n

Stating that in addition to the natural and created advantages of the country in health tourism, it is inevitable for governments to see health tourism as one of the main tourism types of the country and to make the necessary legal regulations and inspections in this context, Sava\u015fan asked President Ak\u0131nc\u0131 to take a role in realizing these issues.<\/p>\n

It is vital that Health Tourism is incentivized as in Turkey...<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sava\u015fan pointed out that the tax reductions given to health tourism in Turkey, the financial support for overseas promotion and the structure of the Ministry of Health that supports and supervises the sector should be taken as a role model for the TRNC, and that it is extremely important for the development of this sector that universities conduct research and scientific studies in the field of health tourism.<\/p>\n

Ak\u0131nc\u0131; \u201cIt is pleasing that the Council is among the international actors...\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

In his speech, President Mustafa Ak\u0131nc\u0131 emphasized that alternative tourism types should develop in Northern Cyprus. Ak\u0131nc\u0131 said, \u201cThe acceptance of the Cyprus Health Tourism Council as a member of the World Health Tourism Council on behalf of Northern Cyprus is a positive development in terms of our international representation. The fact that the Council is among the international actors that shape Health Tourism is an important development in terms of the development of tourism in our country.\u201d.<\/p>\n

The development of Health Tourism increases tourism revenues in our country...<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pointing out that it is a positive step for the government to put in its program that Tourism will be a State Policy, Ak\u0131nc\u0131 stated that he will do his part in this regard.<\/p>\n

Stating that he has been doing a lot of work for the development of alternative tourism types in Northern Cyprus for years, Ak\u0131nc\u0131 expressed his belief that tourism revenues will increase in the country with the development of other alternative tourism types, especially Health Tourism.<\/p>\n

I welcome the Council's call...<\/strong><\/p>\n

Stating that he positively evaluated the call of the Cyprus Health Tourism Council to bring stakeholders together at the Presidency, Ak\u0131nc\u0131 said that he could make this call if the stakeholders see benefit in holding such a meeting.<\/p>\n

International certificate of participation was presented to Ak\u0131nc\u0131...<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the end of the visit, Founding President Ahmet Sava\u015fan and Council Founders Dr. Sava\u015f \u00d6zyi\u011fit, Orhan Tolun and Av. \u00d6zkul \u00d6zyi\u011fit presented President Mustafa Ak\u0131nc\u0131 with a certificate of participation to the World Health Tourism Council on behalf of Northern Cyprus.<\/p>\n
