Surprised there hasn't been more response to this. Interesting to hear his views. He's obviously feeling a little let down that there hasn't been more interest and rallying around from 'the local establishment'. Not surprised to hear this, but I wonder what he had in mind.
...Nice to know that somewhere in a hotel in Turkey there's a conference room named after us
Decent interview. His reference to improving infrastructure by 50% and coincidentally hotels is no coincidence. Essentially the plan is to build a new stand and Hotel and he is looking for local council support.
