In the same meeting with economy focused newspaper agencies, Aras has evaluated the investors' interest as well as the possible revival of tourism in the region. Just as the lockdowns have depleted global tourism, Bodrum has seen %90 losses in foreign tourists during the lockdowns. "Yet, the district has welcomed 100 thousand foreign nationals between January-August. The Turkish tourists have flown to the district during the pandemic. The people who owned vacation homes in the district have revived the local economy, and helped us save some of our losses."

The district expects 1 Billion USD investment in its infrastructure in the next five years. Aras has announced that medicinal agriculture is expected to grow in Bodrum, as a side-industry of tourism.
