Croatian Tourism Minister claims his country

Croatian Tourism Minster Damir Bajs lives in a world of his own this was confirmed by his address before the government on Thursday, when he presented the action plan for 2009 and 2010 regarding Croatian tourism.
Although it took his ministry a long time to produce this action plan, nothing it proposed is revolutionary. Two parts of his note presented at the government are interesting. In the first, he claims that Croatia is ahead of Europe when it comes to income from tourism, and the other states that Croatia is ahead of the world according to the speed of its action plan for 2009! We listened to advice before they were given
In an optimistic start, Minister has emphasised that according to the latest quartal report of the Croatian National Bank for 2008, tourism has exceeded all expectations and instead of 7.1 billion euros, it earned 7.5 billion euros.
In Europe, the percentage of the rise of tourism amounted to a positive zero, only 0.1 percent, thus, we are far ahead of the European Union when it comes to income – Bajs was proud of achievements in his area, praising himself:
The World Tourism Organisation is inviting governments of countries which told tourism important to put tourism at the centre of their economy salvation action plans. I will thank the prime minister because we are one of the first countries to have taken that advice, even before it was given, in a manner of speaking, anticipating what was next and this government will adopt one of the first plans in general, in the world tourism economy.
