however the strenght of the lira does impact, and hardness of a currentcy,which helps in the import / export of a country ie import of oil. I am amazed that turkey with its ubundance of fruit doesn't have a major market in the gulf for soft drinks etc, what happened to polypeck guy?
turkish lira bouyed up by the high interest rates offered to investors, lord alone knows what it would cost to borrow money for a business, the rates would be crazy hence the 8- 10 % inflation. greed will kill the tourist market albeit landlords charging resturants etc to much, or dalaman airport putting up landing fees.
