So far I have not been informed by any travel agency about canceling any reservation. It is expected that about 25 thousand French living in Djibouti would arrive in Aden to spend Christmas. Contacts are still going on with them in this regard. There are reservations for 10 thousand tourists who are expected to arrive in Yemen by the end of December 2000. There are other tourists from Japan, Korea and Poland.
Many British tourists visit Yemen.
But we have a problem with American and Canadian tourists who require 4-5 star hotels. Those hotels are not yet available in remote countries. Generally we receive about 7 thousand tourists every year. Hopefully we have plans to build 7 5-star hotels in such areas. All rights reserved.
