PM: Citizens visiting summer vacation places in big numbers indicates recovery

Damascus, SANA-Caretaker Prime Minister Wael al-Halqi said the tourism sector is “a key pillar” of the comprehensive, balanced and sustainable development during the upcoming stage, on which great hopes are pinned for propping up national economy.

Visiting tourist establishments and restaurants in al-Rabweh in Damascus, Dr. al-Halqi said that “despite massive damage wrought to the tourism sector by armed terrorist groups, the will of the Syrian people and government will restore this vital sector to its erstwhile glamour.”

The process of reconstruction and rebuilding requires that all economic, service and development sectors be vitalized for establishing industrial, tourist and investment projects, urging businessmen at home to invest their capitals in projects that pay dividends for national economy.
