It is with deep sorrow that we have learned of the passing of Ekrem Ruhi Balta, one of TÜROB's oldest members, a doyen of our industry, and a distinguished pioneer of Edirne tourism.

The late Ekrem Ruhi Balta will always be remembered with gratitude for his contributions to our industry, as well as for his fatherly, philanthropic, visionary, and entrepreneurial qualities and a character that truly embodied the term gentleman.
