A Multi-Million Opportunity in Tourism through CrownLifestyle.net
Tourism is indeed one of the biggest and most exciting industries in the world. In fact, over a billion tourists spent over a trillion US Dollars travelling around the world last year. From the different tourist destinations around the world, France, the United States, Spain, China Italy, Great Britain, Turkey, Germany, Malaysia and Mexico are the top 10. And from them, China and Malaysia are the neighboring Asian countries of the Philippines. In fact, China had 51 million visitors bringing $39.7 billion to their economy while Malaysia had 23.6 million visitor bringing $30 billion to their economy as well. Indeed, it even surpasses the $18.7 billion remittance of the Overseas Filipino Workers last year.
As far as the Philippines performance in tourism, the country only had 3.5 million visitors that spent $2.49 billion. When you think about it, the tourist attractions of Malaysia are somewhat similar to the ones in the Philippines. But why is it that they have earned almost 10 times than the Philippines? If only the country could just replicate the performance of Malaysia, its economy could boom. Hence, there may no longer be a need to find work abroad.
Given this situation, the Department of Tourism is hopeful of its action-oriented National Tourism Development Plan (NTDP). Such plan aims to attract about 6.5 million foreign tourists hence, generate 2.9 million new job opportunities for the next 5 years. To make this possible, such tourism plan should consider the product, transportation, accommodation, facilitation as well as MARKETING! As far as product, Filipinos are naturally hospitable, smiling and English-speaking people. Also, the prices of food, hotels, shopping and entertainment are very reasonable. Furthermore, the multi-culture heritage and natural attractions such as the beaches in Boracay should be stressed out. As far as transportation, the Manila Airport needs to be improved since it is the worst capital airport in Asia. Since San Miguel had already made Caticlan Airport to be the gateway to Boracay, it is very much possible to do it to the whole country. As far as accommodation, hotels should charge reasonable rates and add more quality hotel rooms that follow the standards of NTDP's goal. Since it not easy to build hotels, a feasible study, visionary entrepreneurs, resources, time as sell as stable government. Lastly, the marketing must be synchronized with the country's products. Since the world is large market, each and every one can take part in selling the beaches, hotels for vacation and leisure to friends, relatives, OFWs as well as foreign tourists that can visit them.
