Abstract

Marine cultural tourism, a developing tourism mode, has grown in popularity among tourists in recent years, indicating broad market prospects (Zheng et al., 2017). Selayar Islands Regency is an international commerce route believed to have existed since 1820. According to preliminary data, a shipwreck with ceramics and money coins was discovered in the Bontosikuyu District and its surrounds in China. It is believed that these coins circulated throughout the archipelago between the 11th and 14th centuries. However, the vast potential has not been realized. In addition, there is a risk of local populations exploiting maritime cultural heritage objects for economic gain. This study is to investigate the potential of marine heritage as a new tourism destination in the Selayar Islands Regency. This research methodology is spatial qualitative, with spatial analysis using the ArcGIS application followed by qualitative identification of tourism potential using the 3A approach (attractions, amenities, accessibility). The study identified numerous prospective places based on interviews with stakeholders and study literature for marine heritage tourism that could serve as a tourist route. The proposed route has yet to be tested. Its potential is based solely on observation results; literature reviews; and conversations with stakeholders. This research aims to identify prospective maritime heritage routes in the Selayar Islands Regency. The study's findings indicate that the potential for marine heritage tourism packages in Selayar Regency is enormous but due to a lack of attention, it requires significant improvement and development in terms of attractions, accessibility, and amenities.

Abstract

The study analyses the soft power approach to conflict resolution using tourism and community involvement initiatives. This study investigates the impact of Peace through Tourism (PTT) and Community participation (CP) on Conflict resolution (CR) in Border destinations of Jammu and Kashmir (UT) in order to explore the possibilities of promoting just, peaceful, and inclusive societies, as articulated by Sustainable Development Goal 16 (SDG 16). Using community involvement and tourism as a means to greatly minimise conflict of all kinds as the main objective, about 340 residents of border towns were polled with questionnaires. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and structural equation modelling (SEM) were employed to test and validate the study's assumptions about the relationships between variables. Current research findings suggest that peace through tourism plays a key role in resolving conflict at destinations and may play a supportive role in building peace on a global and local scale. The results also showed that community participation in tourism development has a big effect on resolving conflicts and that community participation lets locals enjoy the benefits of tourism activities and gives them the power to improve their skills through small business ventures. The paper gives suggestions for how different groups can help build peace through cooperative tourism projects and community interaction based on tourism.

Abstract

ABSTRACT   This study was set out to identify and document the highway tourist stop-over foodservice establishments (HTSFE) characteristics; thus, creating a profile and grading for informed choice by tourists. The study adopted a cross-sectional design and quantitative data was collected from managers of establishments.  The questionnaire was interviewer- administered in addition to an observational check-list. The study involved 30 HTSFE identified with the assistance from Uganda Tourism Board (UTB) and Uganda Safari Guides Association (USAGA). The response rate was 100%. Most of HTSFE were located in Western (47.6%) and Eastern Uganda (36.7%). Some were either stand-alone restaurants (40%) or part of a bigger hotel (43%). A considerable number (30%) employed between 1-5 food handlers and most (63.3%) had operated for more than 10 years.  Majority (58.6%) were inspected by UTB in addition to either local council or city council. The commonest complaint recorded was delay in service (73.7%).  The dishes prepared included local dishes (90%) and international cuisines (66.7%). Most HTSFE used water from National Water and Sewerage corporation (79.3%). None of the HTSFE had a food safety management system. The HTSFE belonged to three grade categories: B (36.6%), C (30%) and Non-graded (33.3%). The findings of the study suggest the need for implementing food safety management systems and more regular inspections and trainings for food safety assurance.

Abstract

The development of tourism in West Java in recent years has shown an increasing trend in domestic tourists until 2021. The increased number of domestic tourists has had an impact on West Java's economic activity. However, the tourism sector itself is not defined as a distinct sector in economic statistics, and as a result, the economic impact from tourism contributions is not quite noticeable, especially in West Java Province. This study aims to highlight the impact of tourism on the economy of West Java by examining domestic tourist spending in 2021 and its effect on the economy. The study estimates the multiplier effect of domestic tourists' spending on production, income, gross value added, and employment, to determine the economic impact of tourism. The results of this study indicate that tourism has a significant impact and plays a significant role in the West Java economy, contributing 9.28% to GRDP and 12.39% of the total working population in West Java in 2021.

Abstract

This study investigates the underlying motivation for visiting Russia and Ukraine based on which policymakers can frame policies and campaigns around tourism in these war-ravaged countries. Finding ways to promote and sustain tourism in such destinations can immensely contribute to the economy of these nations.  The study was conducted by collecting both primary and secondary data. For secondary data, online news sources and Google Trends were employed; for primary data, responses were collected from 207 Indian subjects through an online questionnaire for eliciting responses from a diverse set of subjects a broader reach. The results indicated a clear impact on rising interest of tourists in these countries despite the popular assumption that war might deter tourists from entering such destinations. The subjects admitted that the war ignited their curiosity in Ukraine's people, culture and destinations. This research is the first of its kind, which explores the motivation of tourists to travel to Russia and Ukraine while they are still at war and the ways in which countries can sustain tourism during the period of war.

Abstract

The study examines the socio-demographic characteristics, food safety knowledge, attitudes, and practices of food handlers in highway tourist stop-over food service establishments in Uganda. The study further explores the relationship between the above factors using the Structural Equation Model (SEM). Understanding food safety knowledge, attitudes, and practices of food handlers can inform future interventions toward food safety assurance in food service establishments. The study used a cross-sectional design and data was collected using a self-administered structured questionnaire. Data was analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) Version 22 and Analysis of Moment Structures (AMOS). Approximately half of the respondents had adequate knowledge of food safety and good practices. The results from SEM confirmed that food safety knowledge significantly affected practices (β= 0.37 p<0.05), attitude insignificantly, and negatively affected practices (β= -0.04 p>0.05). Only 13.3% of the changes in practices were explained by the knowledge and attitudes of the respondents (R-squared 0.133). The majority of the food handlers were males, had experience of more than 2 years, attended food safety training, and had limited knowledge about Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP). The study is the first of its kind in Uganda. The findings suggest that future interventions should look beyond food safety knowledge and attitudes of the food handlers in food safety assurance efforts.

Abstract

In the modern times, the demand for hotel and tourism services is increasing rapidly. As a result, hospitality employees face enormous professional pressure at work. This work pressure causes them stress at work. Since job satisfaction is a prerequisite for providing the highest quality services, it largely depends on the level of stress in the workplace. In this study, determinants of job stress have been identified first and then an attempt has been made to study the impact of job stress on employees’ satisfaction. The study has been conducted with the help of primary data collected from the sample respondents from the study region. The study applies factor analysis and multiple regression analysis. The study confirmed that Eustress has direct positive relations with the job satisfaction of employees. Since, the study reveals that Duration of Work (DW), Job Profile (JP), and Expectation of Management (EM) have positively influenced job satisfaction. HR Policy (HRP) and Work Pressure (WP) negatively affected job satisfaction and these aspects should be taken care of by the management.

Abstract

The 2018 Jakarta-Palembang Asian Games is the most significant event in Asian Games history regarding contested sports, participating nations, and athletes. This study identifies the long-term benefits of the event to the host country, focusing on the international attendees’ propensity to revisit Indonesia after the event. We administered a survey throughout the two weeks of the event, yielding usable responses from 1,914 international attendees, including athletes, officials, journalists, committees, and spectators. We use the survey results to describe attendees’ evaluation of the event and Indonesia as the host country. Further, this study also estimates a multinomial logistic regression to identify the association between tourist characteristics and their intention to revisit Indonesia beyond the event. The results show that providing information and communication technology, transportation arrangement, culture, and hosting cities positively correlate with the propensity to return. In contrast, the previous visit to Indonesia has the opposite effect. International respondents mainly express their desire to revisit Indonesia on a long-stay plan. Lastly, we also discuss the academic and practical implications of our findings.

Abstract

The Covid-19 outbreak has impacted the tourism industry worldwide. It has also affected how travelers used to travel. The present study investigates travelers’ behavior grounded on the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). The study incorporated a new concept of risk perception of Covid-19, anticipated fear and response efficacy, and examined travel behavior across two groups of people. The first group desires to travel a short distance while the other desires to travel a far distance destination. The work also investigates how these two groups are different in their travel intention. The data collected from 507 individuals have been utilized for the analysis using structural equation modeling. Overall, the risk perception of Covid-19 is found to have a vital and significant impact on individuals’ travel intention, followed by one’s response efficacy towards it. Further, the two groups are found different at the model level and also across a few paths  . The findings will help DMOs and the government curate strategies in case of a similar scenario (e.g., an epidemic).

Abstract

Homestay services are less well-known than hotel services for tourism. However, homestay is an important aspect of tourism, not just as lodging but as a travel attraction. This study examines the influence of the homestay experience on tourist satisfaction and its significance within the context of the tourism industry. The homestay experience was examined using 244 survey questionnaires. This study demonstrated that homestay experience affects destination satisfaction and behavioural intention. Homestay services are a destination attraction because tourists want to experience the destination's traditional culture. To increase destination satisfaction, include local cultural activities in the accommodation service. Therefore, this study has the potential to improve our knowledge of the hospitality sector broadly.
