Lebanese, Iraqi tourism bodies sign joint agreement
2003-08-23
The Lebanese tourist establishments unions and the League of Hotels and Restaurants in Iraq on Friday signed a cooperation protocol to promote Arab tourism and the exchange of expertise and investment between both countries. The head of the Federation of Tourist Establishments, Pierre Ashqar, and the head of the Hotel and Restaurants League in Iraq, Dalir Ismail, signed the agreement during a meeting held at the offices of the Association of Hotel Owners. Ashqar said the protocol would create job opportunities for many Lebanese, especially as local experience in tourism would enable Lebanese to easily work in Iraqi establishments.
"Gosh, honey! I just can't decide where we should go for vacation this year. Should we go to Fallujah, or to Ein el-Hellhole?"

#1  Lebanon has a tourist board?!! I'm not sure, but I'll bet the East St. Louis Chamber of Commerce gets more phone calls in a year.
