So how can you improve tourism. The saying is wine, dine and women.

Its time to legalize the prostitution in certain areas of the city as in other developed countries for the tourism industry... its a kind of service that a certain sectors of the society needs ... Nevertheless this trade can never be eradicated from the society... arresting them is not the solution for the prostitution...
