Abstract

Souvenirs provide a tangible evidence of the travel experience. Souvenir purchase has been considered as an important component of tourism shopping. This has implications for tourism marketers and local artisans of regions that have a significant repertoire of traditional handicrafts/handloom products and may be regarded as craft-rich regions. The primary purpose of this study is to examine the souvenir purchase intentions of tourist segments to one such region - Northeast India. It aims to assess whether the intention to purchase souvenirs differs according to the type of tourist. The influence of travel motivations, activity preferences, demographics and certain trip-related factors on souvenir purchase intentions is examined. Using factor-cluster segmentation approach, three motive-based segments and three activity-based segments have been derived. Findings indicate that these segments differ with respect to purchase of souvenir. However, among the demographic and trip-related factors examined, only age and travel frequency are found to have an influence on intentions to purchase souvenirs. Tourism retailers of the region could benefit from such knowledge and may develop travel packages/ tour itineraries to cater to the interests of specific segments of tourists.

Abstract

The trade-off between economic development and the environmental quality is a wellknown phenomenon. Till a nation become very highly developed and learn how to manage environment or critical natural resources while undertaking various developmental socio-economic activities the growth process becomes unsustainable. Hence a debate has always been there in regard to the sustainability of the growth process and the preservation of natural resources and maintaining inter-generational as well as intra-generational equity. It is found that the poorer especially the indigenous people, whose livelihood are highly dependent on the natural resource extraction are the worst victim of the natural resource degradation that are caused by the socio-economic activities undertaken by the state as well the richer section of any society. Hence, there is a strong inter-linkage between social and economic activity, sustainability of the resource use and environmental quality. In the context of aforesaid background, nature based tourism that has been one of the fastest growing economic activities in the world during past few decades can be a better option for the maintenance of sustainable welfare along with the preservation of natural wealth. Ecotourism has thus become a buzzword of the time. The indigenous people especially the women have been found to be involved in selling a large number of handloom and handicrafts product that has been prepared from the locally collected minor forest products. Moreover, the development of scope of employment and income in the growing hospitality sector and transport business with the growing demand by the nature loving tourists has created an opportunity for sustainable environmental management at the regional level for the livelihood itself. This paper tries to explore how a substantial section of indigenous population of North East India manage their livelihood through the growing nature based tourism activities through the maintenance of nature itself. Not only that the women who are involved in such activities are empowered in their indigenous rural set up. It is examined on the basis of empirical observation through a primary survey conducted in three prime tourist sites in Meghalaya, the areas of highest rainfall zone in the world. The pleasant climate and the beauty of natural forest are the prime attractions of the visitors over the years.

One of the attractives and potentials tourism activities which could be developed is a scientific tourism. Although this type of tourism was formally introduced recently, but actually this type of tourism has been known in Indonesia for a long time, especially by students. As an educational city, Bandung is very potential to be a scientific tourist destination, not only for domestic tourists but also for foreign tourists. Scientific tourism can be grouped into three, namely 1) the tourism activities where tourism senses are more dominant than scientific sense, 2) tourism activities where scientific senses are more dominant than tourism sense, and 3) tourism activities where tourism attractions are relatively in balance with scientific elements. Among these three types of scientific tourism, the second type of scientific tourism was most often found in Bandung. Actually, the common problems frequently experienced by scientific tourism attraction, especially on the third type of scientific tourism that highlight the scientific aspects, was relatively low in the number of visitors. This figure proved a relatively low level of interest for community towards scientific tourism. Therefore efforts needed to be carried out to improve the scientific tourism attractions, thereby increasing public enthusiasm for scientific tourism. Strategy which was needed to develop a sustainable scientific tourism consisted of Tourism Attractions Development, Promotion, Management, and Supporting Strategies

Factor analysis results indicate three dimensions of travel web effectiveness were derived, namely: i) technical adequacy & customization,ii) system quality & specific content and iii) web appearance. In testing the model, multiple regression results show that the above dimensions have positive influence on individual extrinsic motivation (perceived usefulness). Meanwhile, web appearance and technical adequacy & customization have positive influence on intrinsic motivation (perceived ease of use and enjoyment) of travel websites.

It is imperative that the hotel industry must constantly adapt to environment changes such as meeting the demands of customers utilizing innovative technology. While most hoteliers would agree that using the Internet creates benefits for the customers, little is known about the mechanisms in generating customer satisfaction on the Internet. This study will explore the reasons that influenced Internet users ' satisfaction in the hotel industry and identify new directions of the Internet for the hotel industry.

Abstract

This study attempted to determine the influence of consumption value on the novelty preference for corporate meeting destination choice. The theory of consumption value as proposed by Sheth et al. (1991) was employed as the internal motivating drive to explain the choice between conventional and novel meeting destinations. The consumption value theory by Sheth et al. (1991) was the best typology to be employed in this study because of its multidimensional properties composed of both objective value (functional) and perceptual values (epistemic, emotional, social and conditional) attributes. A total of 75 corporate meeting planners drawn from public listed services organizations were involved. The main method of data collection was questionnaire survey and multiple regression analysis was employed as the main statistical technique. The results revealed that functional value exerted a negative effect on novelty preference while epistemic value was positively related to novelty preference for corporate meetings.
