Causes And Effects Of Chinese Outbound Tourism

With an enriched Chinese population and booming economy, many aspects of the Chinesetourism have largely changed. The amount of Chinese people travelling abroad has increased at afast pace and is having a toll in the worldwide tourism market. The World Tourism Organization(UNWTO) in1995expected China to reach100million arrivals worldwide by2020. By thenumbers given by the CNTA that number was already exceeded last year. The purpose of thisresearch is to understand why are the Chinese people travelling so much, what has changed?Then what is the repercussions of these travels, is it beneficial for the Chinese people, economy,culture? Thus the problem being, if the central government should do something concerning theoutbound tourism. By studying closely the numbers and development of the Chinese outboundtourism I’ve come to an understanding that the Chinese outbound tourism is not a bad thing,even if the tourism trade deficit is increasing, the benefits of the Chinese people traveling abroadoutweigh the negative effects. If the central government were to take actions is to protect andteach the travelers while creating incentives to increase the inbound tourism to balance the tradedeficit.
