A number of tourism sector representatives called for Tourism Minister Yehia Rashed to be sacked at a meeting on Monday, according to a statement reported by Al Mal. They say Rashed’s policies are the reason why tourism is in poor condition, without explaining further. They also criticize the sector’s inability to create jobs and say it is “on the verge of collapsing.” The story reads to us very much like a settling of scores, so take it with a grain or two of salt for the moment.
