ONE of the biggest construction companies in Europe is considering building a golf and holiday village in Altinkum, it has emerged.

Members of the FADESA group arrived in Didim last week and held top level talks with the Ministry of Tourism Ankara Director Sennur Aldemir and Culture and Expert Deputy Arzu Uçar.

They also held meetings with Mayor Mümin Kamaci and received information about the land available for touristic purposes in Didim held by the Ministry of Tourism. They apparently left satisfied with the answers and are considering firming up the ideas in the near future.

The Spanish company operates in the construction and real estate sectors in various countries around Europe, including Portugal, Hungary, Poland and France.

The company, which has undertaken great scale projects in Spain such as golf courses and holiday villages, has a paid in capital of above 11 million 200 thousand Euros.

The company said it had been to Çeşme, izmir, prior to Didim but had liked Didim better than Çeşme. The administrators from FADESA completed their observations and left Didim last Thursday.

Mayor of Didim Mümin Kamaci stated that it was extremely important for the company to consider investing in Didim.

He said: “If these investments turn out, many things will change for Didim. The golf course and the holiday villages that FADESA is considering building are very important for us. I hope the result will be positive.”

The administrators from FADESA will return to their country following their contacts with the authorities of Ministry of Tourism in Ankara.
