There are 4
different types of tourism. After
reading and pondering, I am wondering if it is possible that all 4 different
tourism to be happening at the same time.
1 1 ) Domestic Tourism
a. Tourists that travels from one part
of the stat to another state
b. Tourist from other country to travel
to other state is also considered.
2 2 ) Internal Tourism
a. Tourists that travel from one part
of the state to another state
3) International Tourism
a. Inbound Tourists
i.
Visitation
by non-residents of the country
b. Outbound Tourists
i.
Visitation
by residents of a country to another country
4) National Tourism
a. Tourists travel out of their country
b. Visitation by residents of a country
to another country.
Example 1:
Caleb who
is a Singaporean is travelling to Korea, Seoul for a cultural exchange. He is
to be considered as an International tourist as he is travelling to a country
or state that is not belonging to Singapore.
Caleb met
Tae Hyun at Seoul who is his Korean buddy for this particular cultural exchange
programme. Tae Hyun brought Caleb to Jeju Island by domestic flight since
travelling by air is faster when compared to travelling by ship. Tae Hyun is
considered as internal tourism because he is travelling from one part of Korea
to another part of Korea. Both Tae Hyun and Caleb is considered to be domestic
tourism, since Tae Hyun is travelling from one state to another and Caleb is
travelling as a foreigner from one state to another.
After
staying at Jeju Island for a few days, Tae Hyun and Caleb decided to go Kuala
Lumpur to do some sight-seeing.
Tae Hyun is
considered as an inbound tourist as he is visiting Malaysia which is not his
country and that Caleb is considered to be an outbound tourist as he is
considered to be travelling from one country to another country that is not his
homeland. Both of them can also be considered as national tourism as both of
them are travelling out of Korea which is travelling out from one country to
another.
Hospitality
refers to the various food, beverages and accommodation that are provided to
the tourists.
Tourism
refers to when foreigner using their own currency to spend at other country.
Example:
Caleb
brought seaweed in Korea he is considered to be tourist and to be well taken
care of by the hospitality as he is spending Korean currency rather than
Singapore currency and that seaweed which the Korean delicacies is easily
accessed.
If Tae Hyun
brought seaweed in Korea he is not considered as a tourist as he is earning
Korean currency and spending Korean currency. He is considered to have be well
taken care of by the hospitality as he can easily access the Korean delicacies
without trouble.
Government
Sectors refers to people who are working under the government whereas private
sector refers to companies that is run by individual and all profits goes to
themselves.
Example:
If Tae
Hyun’s grandmother decided to do major heart operation in Singapore, they would
usually choose private hospitals such as KK Hospital or Raffles Hospital.
Whereas if
is Caleb’s grandmother decided to do a major heart operation, they would have
chose Singapore General Hospital (SGH) rather than Raffles Hospital as SGH is
run by the government and definitely there is some form of helps that is
available to them to relieve finance burden.
The public
sectors are considered as the Non-Government Organizations (NGOs). This is
because these organizations are usually not profiting from the government and
that they are a group of people that are interested in tourism.
Example 2:
The organization National Association of
Travel Agents Singapore (NATAS) are actually various travel agencies that
gather together to provide travel packages to various group of people. These
companies include the Chan Brothers, Five Star Tours, Farmosa Holiday Tour…
e.t.c. They usually profit by holding exhibitions to get people interested and
to buy their travel packages.
I think
that’s all the key points that I can identify in problem 1. :D
