Sir, the recent publication on malaria cases in Antalya is very interesting. Ser and Cetin noted that “All P. falciparum cases were found to be imported cases coming to Antalya from other countries (1).” Indeed, the imported malaria becomes the present important concern of many countries. This can be related to the better transportation system and global warming, which can promote disease, carrier and vector transferance from old endemic areas to the new settings. The emergence of malaria in Turkey should be an urgent public concern in the country. The setting up of a new surveillance and control system for the new emergence will be useful.
