At the present time and for different reasons, the ADED Association of Distributors, understands that in view of the situation that is causing tension, discomfort and in some cases, albeit slight, aggravation, assaulting our visitors, etc., we believe it is necessary to promote a campaign to make amends to all the tourists who visit us or are thinking of doing so, as they are our customers, they are our clients.
“We invite all sectors and groups to join this campaign if they consider it appropriate.
However, we are well aware that in the tourism sector or environment, there are several problems to be faced and solved, such as mobility, parking, accesses, putting an end to the supply of illegal accommodation, etc., but in no case should all these issues be solved by insulting visitors or our “clients” with graffiti such as: “Tourist go home”, “Guiris fora”, “Kill a tourist”, etc...
We think that especially those who promote all these movements and demonstrations should ask themselves some questions, such as: Can any citizen of this community say that there is anyone in their family or close circle of people who does not live directly or indirectly from tourism? Are they aware that if there is a significant drop in the number of visitors, many thousands of citizens will lose their jobs? Thousands of businesses in many sectors (craftsmen, restaurateurs, commerce, accommodation, etc...) will be forced to close their doors.
We repeat that we are well aware of the issues or problems that we have to solve, but we insist that the only thing that we can achieve by insulting tourists and creating tension is that, as was the case in 2020/21 - we will have to say again “SOS Tourism”,

What a mess. Mixed messages to the world from we love tourists to we hate (and eat) tourists. Everyone, grow up! This is a serious situation not to be played with. Mallorca looks like it's being managed by amateurs.
