Marhaba ... Say it your own way
Greetings from the land of non-stop partying, passion and success, from the land where all your dreams can turn possible. We are not saying that because we are originally Lebanese but this is what the world's best newspapers and magazines declared and, most of all, this is what the current international credit crisis has proved.
That international credit crisis has shaken ground underneath the most prestigious and powerful companies in the world, has drawn the "Grand Finale" of millionaires in our "new world economic system", and has reshuffled the classification of prominent destinations around the globe.
As we say, someone's misery may be someone else joy. Within all such doldrums, Beirut has emerged as the safest place on Earth for investments. The capital, which was referred to as a symbol of political stalemate and struggles, turns out to be the investors' heaven.
Such facts are emphasized by fair property prices, new inward investment policies, master-minded banking system, and high flexibility in foreign exchange, crowned by one of the most liberal nightlife code systems not only in the Middle East but the entire world.
The "World Travel & Tourism Council - WTTC" is optimistic about the future of tourism in the country, and specifically nightlife tourism. The nightlife sector alone is expected to generate 3.48 billion U.S dollars in 2016, with an increase of 4.4% per annum, in real terms, between 2009 and 2016.
Recently, our distinguished nightlife culture has astonished the world. Lebanese people know well that they are here for a "once in a lifetime" journey, they are fond of life, and they know how to party like no one else.
To keep it short, Lebanon is blessed with a double virtue: the first is granted via a marvelous nature, and the second is earned via its distinguished citizens who are highly educated, civilized and sociable, even when facing worst case scenarios.
