Middle Eastern Tour Kurdistan realising potential

If it bleeds it leads. But what about some positive news, news of creation, news of democracy, news of good will, with pride in a strong identity built upon unity and not on religious, economic and political division. But this does not sell newspapers. Instead the idiosyncrasies that undermine stability with an inflammatory nature to evoke hostility are what we read about.

So I will tell you about my recent trip to the Middle East. When the opportunity arose I was cautious to entertain the possibility to travel to the Kurdistan region in the north of Iraq. I was warned I would get kidnapped, there was instability, both economically and politically and I may come a cropper to such troubles. The reality was in fact far from this, being welcomed into the country so recently engulfed in war and so desperate to gain its feet again the reality was a marvel. To paint the picture of the sites that were seen, the people who were met would be a book alone. To spread the word of the opportunities that the country offer in terms of trade through tactical legal constitutions, progression within religious unity and hope through agricultural and infrastructure projects this is something that must emphasised.

If you would like to hear more we can discuss.
