The Malta Hotels and Restaurants Association (MHRA) believes that indicative figures for September and October will result in further drops of another 20,000 tourists on last year's figures by the end of October.

The Association added that the drop will mean that instead of expanding tourist numbers by 50,000 during 2006, in the first 10 months of the year, the figures will result in a drop of 50,000 visitors. "This would mean the government is 100,000 visitors short of the established target," it added.
