"A better infrastructure for the tourism industry, better planning and a better urban environment .. all of this is possible, but cannot happen piecemeal," said Plevneliev on a campaign trip to Pleven. In his visit, Plevneliev was accompanied by Bulgarian Parliament speaker Tsetska Tsacheva, who was elected as an MP from Pleven.

"I have made a personal commitment to work for the improvement of the business climate and that our country develops its Bulgaria Tourism Strategy," added Plevneliev, who before deciding to run, was Minister of Regional Development in the cabinet of encumbent PM Boyko Borisov.

Earlier Thursday in a visit to nearby town of Dolni Dabnik, the GERB presidential candidate estimated that Bulgarian tourism has already grown by around 6% for 2011. This is confirmed by official figures released by the Ministry of Economy which estimate that, for the year, tourism in Bulgaria will have grown by some 6 to 7%.
