Abstract

This paper examines the relationship between the tourist area life cycle and the recovery period following a crisis. There have been many studies of the tourist area life cycle theory and its application to the evolution of a tourism destination or resort. While it is clear that a tourism destination follows an asymptotic curve from its inception through development and stagnation, it is not clear how destinations in various stages of the tourist area life cycle are impacted by a crisis. This study focuses on two countries in Southeast Asia (Singapore and Vietnam) that are indifferent stages of the life cycle. The purpose of the study is to examine the relative impact of the SARS epidemic on the visitor arrivals of the two nations. Both ASEAN nations were exposed to the crisis, and the results show that the impact of the crisis, and the resulting recovery, did vary according to the life cycle stage.

Abstract

As one of the international tourist destinations in the world, Bali has been the landmark of tourism in Indonesia. Supported by excellent tourist facilities and infrastructure, Bali has become a very touristic place. This condition forces the Balinese to adapt with the new environment that may influence their daily life. The cultural richness of Bali has been the main focus of the Government to boost and maintain Bali as one of the world's top destinations. This has made the Balinese and its culture undergo modification in terms of performances, values and the way of life. This paper aims to identify the commodification of culture in Bali which is the result of the development of cultural tourism in Bali. Furthermore this paper reveals the cultural commodification from the perspectives of the tourists, the Balinese and the Government. The paper also discusses the social problems occur in Bali, the efforts to restore Balinese culture and the future of cultural tourism in Bali.

Abstract

This paper analyses the effects of tourism on equity and the security of local poor households in China. Tourism is found to be an important income source for local households, although the poor get much less benefit than other households. While most stakeholders realized the inequity and disadvantages for the poor, there are significant differences in perceptions of tourism effects between local households and other stakeholders, as well as between the poor and other income groups. Stakeholders other than local households generally over-estimate positive tourism effects on local economic growth and underestimate the extent of cultural change. Households generally believe tourism increases their cash income, creates employment opportunities, and improves living standards. However, the poor are more circumspect than higher income groups about these effects. The poor consider that tourism development does not improve access to education opportunities, and are concerned about the widening gap between the poor and 'rich'. However, wealthy people were concerned about the negative social impacts of tourism, while the poor were more positive about tourism's effect on social security. The major barriers for the involvement of the poor in tourism are socio-economic, especially the lack education. The high cost of education and its effect on household expenditure, means that the poor are trapped and can rarely take advantage of the benefits of tourism. The study suggests a modification of the Sustainable Tourism-Eliminating Poverty model to include policies for reinvestment of tourism's economic benefits into human capital (education) to reduce the imbalance between household income and expenditure.

Abstract

Many travelers now reveal a growing interest in eco-tourism, with the tourism industry in the Asia-Pacific region showing an increase in the number and diversity of eco-tour operators. Relatively little, however, is known about the various ethical beliefs and ethical problemsolving response styles that potential employees bring to such a work context. This study has examined both competence and integrity ethical values, ethical influences and problem-solving responses in regard to an eco-tourism work place dilemma involving unethical operating procedures, leading to pollution of the environment. University business students from a major Australian tourist destination reported that competence ethical values to be important. Tourists were expected to rate integrity ethical values highly, as did respondents who rated tourists' integrity ethical values more highly than tourists' competency ethical values. Organizational mistrust was found to be a widespread expectation among many respondents. The implications of this research for university ethics education, for eco-tourism operations management and for future research within this domain are examined.

Abstract

This article presents the findings of a study regarding the prediction of tourism in Langkawi by using the Delphi Method. The study was conducted for the purpose of testing and implementing the Delphi Method as a qualitative method in predicting the future potential of tourism in Langkawi through the perceptions and evaluations of the tourism experts. Eight respondents were selected as judges in the study. The consensuses among the panel judges were reached only in the second-round of the questionnaire distribution. Thus, the findings indicated that the Delphi Method is an effective method to predict the future potential of tourism in Langkawi from 2003 through to 2010. Several items in the community value systems and the tourism structures increased in parallel to the growth of the Langkawi tourism industry from 2003 through to 2010. This consequently would lead to a community positive acceptance toward the changes occurred in their areas. The panel judges also agreed that Langkawi has a potential to become an international tourist destination and an international tourism events and conference destination to the year 2010. Thus, it is suggested that-items which increase in parallel to the growth of tourism to be taken into consideration in planning and implementing the tourism strategy for the future.

Abstract

Despite some physical similarities with the typology of gated housings developing in Metropolitan of Jakarta, there is uniqueness in gated housings growing in Bandung, especially in its peri-urban area. The uniqueness is the development of tourism activities inside those gated housing. A number of luxury residential complexes with gated characteristics in the peri-urban areas of Bandung have transformed into tourism areas. This phenomenon is interesting to study given the contrasted characteristics between gated housing and tourism. this paper discusses a number of case studies on tourism activities and facilities developing inside gated housings in peri-urban of Bandung. The research method used qualitative descriptive analysis and typo-morphology analysis. The study results have shown a number of unique typo-morphology of tourism facilities inside gated housings in the peri-urban area of Bandung as well as a number of their physical and operational characteristics differences from other tourism facilities in general. Gated housing itself is closely related to segregation. The results of this study have also indicated that the presence of tourism activities in gated housings as well as a number of local creative strategies applied by the management of the tourism facilities could become one of the solutions to minimize the extent of segregation posed by the gated housings and to improve the physical quality of the gated housing where the tourism facilities are located.Keywords: gated housing; peri-urban of Bandung; typology; transformation; tourism

Abstract

The paper is concerned with the concept and characteristics of low cost airlines which are a well established sector in North American and European civil aviation industries, but a fairly recent phenomenon in South East Asia. Trends within the region are discussed with particular reference to the case of Singapore which has seen an expansion in low cost airline activity. Further growth seems possible and likely, although new entrants are shown to face both opportunities and problems. The Western business model appears to be applicable in a regional context, yet some modifications may be necessary to suit the different conditions in the market and those prevailing more widely.

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the knowledge of how job satisfaction (extrinsic and intrinsic satisfaction) and affective commitment influence in-role behaviour of nonsupervisory workers employed within the Malaysian hotel industry. The mediating role of affective commitment on the relationship between job satisfaction and in-role behaviour was also investigated. Regression analyses on the 188 responses collected demonstrated that both intrinsic and extrinsic job satisfaction had positive relationships with affective commitment. Specifically, intrinsic satisfaction was found to be more influential in explaining the variation in affective commitment. Additionally, affective commitment was found to have a significant and positive impact on in-role behaviour. The findings indicate that the two dimensions of job satisfaction were not significant predictors of in-role behaviour, thereby suggesting that the condition for the mediation effect of affective commitment was not supported. Implications of the findings to theory and practice are discussed. The paper concludes by identifying some possible limitations and offering suggestions regarding further investigations on in-role behaviour.

Abstract

Visual quality is very important as observer's first response to his/her surrounding to the ecotourism site. This factor should be stressed for eco-tourism sites such as wetland. An ecofriendly design of eco-tourism accommodations that harmonize and compatible to natural surrounding could increase the tourist interest to the place itself. A study was conducted in Paya Indah Wetlands aimed at assessing visual quality and perception of the eco-tourism accommodations using expert judgment technique. This study used selected photographs of the accommodation elements in Paya Indah Wetlands representing different types of buildings, park furnitures, parking features, pedestrian facilities, drainage and signages. The scoring scheme for visual quality and landscape features was valued using the six basic design elements, namely, form, line, colour, texture, shape and space. Data were gathered from 100 experts using a structured questionnaire with surrogated photos, distributed equally among landscape architects and architects. The results revealed that the visual quality of Paya Indah Wetlands accommodations were categorized as moderate in quality and some of the elements were considered as of poor quality. From the results, visual quality of the eco-tourism accommodations should be taken into consideration at the early stage in the development process to lend a higher visual quality to the wetland landscape of Paya Indah Wetlands.
