Sex tourism a worry as Cuba slump ends

Article Abstract:

Cuba's communist government aims to boost visitor arrivals to the country to 2 million by the year 2000, with hotel capacity being doubled to 50,000 rooms.

There are also concerns that sex tourism is beginning to establish a strong presence.
