There are no words. Not because there is nothing to say, but just so much has happened that I don’t know where to start. We did not have time to return from the Moscow tourism exhibition MITT-2007, when it was the turn of the annual Arab "travel store" - the international exhibition Arabian Travel Market. Both events are significant for the tourism industry, which in its global scale is second only to oil and gas production and the automotive industry. Over the past five to seven years, Dubai has made such a rapid breakthrough in the development of tourism that today it is simply silly to consider Egypt and Turkey as the main competing destinations.
