INTERNATIONAL CONGRESSES POPULAR IN THE NETHERLANDS
Could this be due to the legal prostitution and male-savory red light district? I would bet that is a factor. Even American politicians have their vices...(let me clear my throat--no pun intended--Bill Clinton)
LEIDSCHENDAM, 08/09/06 - International congresses are more frequently being held on Dutch soil. Last year, 341 of such meetings were organised, compared to 208 in 2004. As the Amsterdam Tourism & Convention Board (NBTC) reports, "the Netherlands climbed from 12th to 7th position in the worldwide top 15".
In reverse order, only Spain, Italy, the UK, Germany, France and the United States proved more popular as congress locations last year. NBTC is basing its figures on research figures by the Union of International Associations (UIA). This draws up an annual inventory of the number of congresses with more than 300 participants. Company congresses were not included in the study. NBTC does however, collect details on company congresses held in the Netherlands.
In 2005, a total of 1146 congresses with 40 or more participants were organised. The average congress lasted 3.8 days and involved 203.7 participants. Based on the UIA figures, the Netherlands deserves to be termed an "exceptional climber", as the NBTC believes. This conclusion it deems especially justified since the number of congresses has dropped on a worldwide as well as on a European level since the terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001 on New York and Washington.

If prostitution really would play such a big role in the fact that the Netherlands is so populair with organisers of congresses, then how do you explain the fact that for example the US is more populair.....
Just a question....
Most companies had already cut out these prostitutes congresses from their spending, mostly due to the IRS's scrutiny of the writeoffs of business travel expenses. Plus these prostitutes congresses increased the medical insurance claims for treatment of STD and HIV by the employees. Like Joran right now, Aruba has to pay his chemotherapy. There is an even bigger coverup for Joran's HIV positive. Joran is not returning to school in Holland this fall. The school suspended his awaiting to the result of his further tests in HIV treatment. Aruba had covered up Joran with a prostitute blonde. The Aruba congresses that Joran spent his whole time in Holland finally brought down Joran and killing him. Joran was never a good student, it was all lies by the ISA and Joe Taco. His time in Holland was a joke. He flunk all the classes. He never couldn't find any work or had a job. People know Joran is terminally ill, he is done. That's how he is paying his rotten life. Boycott Aruba. Boycott Holland prostitutes congresses.
