This is a good opportunity for the views of local foreign home owners to be known, and support many local Turks with similiar views, for otherwise the views of rampant and opportunistic developers, estate agents, and others interested only in short term profits, receive of all the coverage, and succeed in creating the false impression that everyone is in favour of more development, which is definitely not the case. There are many architechts and locals opposed to such irresponsible development, and the support of local foreign home owners would no doubt be greatly appreciated.

Hi Darren,

Following on from your email, I have whizzed messages all over the place. I cant claim this as the sole reason for it, but happily this has now been picked up by Turkish daily news and also the bodrum observer.

Getting people into the loop and raising the profile wont hurt. See the article here http://www.turkishdailynews.com.tr/...?enewsid=104602

This is about the Bodrum area, ( not just Bodrum ) but this conference will have a bearing on coastal tourism development for much of Turkey.

Many thanks for letting people know.
