a Hebridean resort
Mr Gilbert Trigano, “Monsieur Club Mediterranee”, and a major figure in the French tourist industry, was in the New Hebrides in April spying out the land for the estab lishment of a Club Mediterranee village in the condominium.
Mr Trigano saw a number of sites he liked particularly, but he wasn’t saying which. He told the Vila fortnightly Nabanga: “You know, if I said now, ‘lt’s going to be at that
place,’ the landowner is going to double or treble the price. This rule applies, not only in the New Hebrides, but the whole world over.”
Asked when a village would be set up, Mr Trigano turned the question back on the interviewer: “You tell me when the situation in the New Hebrides will be finally cleared up.”
In the meantime New Hebridean political leaders who are to visit Paris in July will be invited by Mr Trigano to visit any Club Mediter ranee village of their choice to see how it works.
