ANALYSIS OF URBAN TOURISM COMPETITIVENESS BASED ON FACTOR ANALYSIS: A CASE ST...ijcsit
Firms in nearly the sectors of the economy are facing a highly competitive, volatile and complex business such as the advent of globalization. Economic globalization has forced and is still forcing firms to develop new global manufacturing and distribution concepts. Through the development of economic globalization, every government and firm in the world is proceeding to reform and redevelop in order to deal with globalization. This paper is an empirical study, describes and explores the case of competitiveness of urban tourism of Luoyang and the seven cities around. As for the tourism industry, on the one hand, publicity should be expanded and tourism resources should be integrated so as to highlight the tourism advantage and on the other hand, travel services should be improved, and travel agency and hotel management should be enhanced, so that it can better serve tourists.
Effect of Tourism on Economic Wellbeing of Host Communities in Cross River St...ijtsrd
This study examined the effect of tourism on economic wellbeing of host communities in Cross River State, Nigeria. The study modelled the effect of service, product, hotels, transportation and infrastructural facilities on economic well being of host communities in Cross River State. It is a descriptive survey on a sample of 400 respondents from the host communities. Data obtained for the study were analyzed using percentages, mean, standard deviation and regression analysis. From the result of the regression model it was observed that product, service and infrastructure have positive impact on the on the economic well being of the host communities. This means that if product, service and infrastructure are developed and improved, it will bring about more increase in the economic well being of the host communities. On the other hand, hotels and transportation have a negative impact on the economic wellbeing of the host communities. Thus, increase in hotels and transportation cost will bring about a decline in the economic wellbeing of the host communities. The overall significance of the model also supports the alternate hypothesis that the model has goodness of fit and is statistically significant. In other words, tourism consumption has significant impact on the economic wellbeing of the host communities. Based on the analysis and findings of the study the following recommendations are made Since tourism consumption has become imperative for economies to thrive successfully, it is imperative that government should develop and as well as regulate operators in the tourism destination to step up the quality of product, service and infrastructure provided in the tourist destination. This is because they have been found to have positive impact on the on the economic well being of the host communities. The government should also come up with policy instruments containing measures that will effectively' monitor and evaluate the operations of tourism destinations. This is necessary as this research manifest the fact that hotels and transportation cost negatively affects the host communities.

The global economic recession has posed new challenges to the world coupled with the challenges of new energy technology in response to global warming has dwindled the economy of so many nations today. Particularly petro-mono economy countries like Nigeria whose revenue base depends mostly on proceeds from crude oil exportation. Overdependence on crude oil is a sign of blunt future consequentially if the oil mine dries up. What would be the fate of the economy? Therefore it is time for Nigeria to spread the tentacles of her economic prowess to other service sectors such as Tourism for sustainable economic exploitation. Tourism is one of the most promising drivers of growth for the world economy. As a development vehicle, tourism resources are inexhaustible unlike crude oil. Nigeria specifically Awka has vast tourism potentials awaiting development. Little wonder the administration of former President Olusegun Obansanjo the set machinery in motion to turn the sector into a major revenue earner. The machinery included the introduction of various festivals across the country for the promotion of its rich cultural heritage to woo foreign tourists. With her appealing tourism resources, this paper advocates the development and exploitation of these resources for wealth creation.

1. INTRODUCTION
Tourist activity has played an important role in global economic activity, and tourism
industry has been the important industry that many countries make effort to develop. Travel
& Tourism is the real global economic activity; it is one of economic sectors that contributes
trillions of dollars annually to the global economy, creates jobs and wealth, generates exports,
boosts taxes and stimulates capital investment. According to the World Tourism Organization
international visits worldwide have risen from 675 million in 2000 to 44 million in 2010, and
tourism industry contributes 9% of global gross domestic product (GDP). In Taiwan, tourism
industry has been considered to be the principal development industry in future; not only
because of Taiwan is abundant in natural and cultural landscapes. Tourism is a global force
for economic and regional developments.

Along with it, tourism development brings a mix of benefits and costs and the growth
of the field of tourism economics makes an important contribution to tourism policy,
planning and business practices. During the life of the Sustainable Tourism Cooperative
Research Centre (STCRC), a series of research reports have been published which put
forward a range of new perspectives and methods that have advanced the global
understanding on tourism contributions for destinations, resource use, evaluations and
business practices. Tourism is an industry that benefits from highly optimistic predictions for
the future, its importance becomes increasingly larger at the global, regional, national and
local level. However, tourism is part of the global invisible trade components. The invisible
trade is one of the forms of international economic exchange, not as a commodity item.
Invisible trade materialize and form invisible balance or balance services important
component of external balance of payments of a country. In the services balance, revenue and
expenditure from tourism activity is recorded balantier account called traveling. Thus
credited to this account shall be recorded revenue from tourism activity and into debit
account the expenditure of development of tourist activity incurred.
2. TOURISM
Due to its interdisciplinary nature of tourism in general has the potential of different
approaches which can cause There are many definitions of it. In recognition of tourists or
visitors to the different definitions of organizations and individuals Have been presented. The
term tourism is defined as travel between the origin and destination of the motivation for rest,
recreation, recreational, Physical, visual, commercial, cultural and leisure tourism destination

“Tourism comprises the activities of person travelling to and staying in places outside their
usual environment for not more than consecutive one year for leisure, business and other
purpose”. Thomas lea Davidson (1994) looked at tourism from three perspectives. The first
perspective, tourism is a social phenomenon, not a production activity.

2. 1. The importance and necessity of Tourism
Tourism is already a field of science and an interdisciplinary science that investigates
and researches phenomena in the tourism field by use of scientific methodology that aims to
establish cause-effect relations. Therefore, we cannot talk about a single approach or
mythology in studies carried out in the tourism field, the final Report on Road mapping for
Academic Tourism Education Conference (2011), Dalaman, Mugla report had implied
suggesting that tourism was a part of social science and benefited from all the qualitative and
quantitative methods the social sciences traditionally employ where many researches and
works are increasing in quality and quantity in both national and international levels thus
leading to rapid increase in tourism programs in many forms as a department in faculties, and
as a main branch of science within the body of academic institutes like own tourism schools
and faculties. Tourism outcomes that differ It can be seen as the driving force of economic

life - a well arranged tourist place is at the same time an attractive place to live and
work.Starting from this premise, the action plan for regional tourism development considers
both possibilities to attract tourists and to increase the standard of living of the local
population; public funds used to support tourism projects are designed to contribute to the
development of those tourist activities of strategic interest both nationally and regionally; in
support of joint projects, priority projects will be projects for promotion of regions, tourist
areas, tourist parks that allow an improvement of existing tourism resources and have a wider
impact; one should promote a brand for each region that summarizes the peculiarity of each
area; for strategic reasons, it is important to provide corroboration funds to achieve synergies
wherever possible, promotion of key projects having priority over the homogeneous
promotion throughout the region. Tourism infrastructure must be developed in relation to
those matters of great importance, representing the key for creating equal opportunities to
enjoy a standard of living and development; consensus regarding development objectives is a
prerequisite for successful tourism development (Virgil Nicula, et al, 2013).
2. 2. The Impacts of Tourism
There are numerous books on what might loosely be called the tourism “system” the
nature and structure of actors and their relationships in tour-ism. This section provides a brief
description of that system. One of the key features of tourism is the diversity in attractions,
destinations, and business characteristics. Given this diversity, the following is inevitably a
simplified overview. At the core, and the focus of this report, are at-tractions, in this case
cultural and natural heritage attractions. These attractions can be grouped as Features within
the natural environment.
• Man-made buildings, structures and sites that were designed for a purpose other than at-
tracting visitors, such as religious worship, but which now attract substantial numbers of
visitors who use them as leisure amenities.
• Man-made buildings, structures, and sites that are designed to attract visitors and are
purpose-built to accommodate their needs,such as theme parks.
• Special events. Destinations often contain more than one attraction, though major
attractions (such as the Egyp-tian pyramids) can be either the sole or the leading attraction at
a destination. Within a destination, there are various tourism facilities, such as hotels and
restaurants. To some degree, these facilities depend on the attractions, but the difference be-
tween the two can be blurred, as some facilities (such as famous hotels) are themselves
attractions. Attractions can be classified using various typolo-gies, such as ownership (e.g.,
public or private) and whether they are primary or secondary in terms of visitor decisions to
visit a destination. Tourism’s impacts are often grouped into eco-nomic, environmental,
social, and cultural; these categories are somewhat arbitrary and overlap-ping, and the latter
two often are combined into one. Listing of these impacts is provided in nu-merous tourism
reports, books, and articles. Thefocus in this section is to briefly note common socio-cultural
impacts and to stress some general concepts.
2. 3. Potential positive impacts include
• building community pride;
• enhancing the sense of identity of a commu-nity or region;
• promoting intercultural/international under-standing;
• encouraging revival or maintenance of tradi-tional crafts;
• enhancing external support for minority groups and preservation of their culture;
5. International Letters of Natural Sciences 20 (2014) 39-46
-43-
• broadening community horizons;
• providing funding for site preservation and management; and
• enhancing local and external appreciation and support for cultural heritage.
2. 4. Potential negative impacts include:
• commodification and cheapening of culture and traditions;
• alienation and loss of cultural identity;
• undermining of local traditions and ways of life;
• displacement of traditional residents;
• increased division between those who do and do not benefit from tourism;
• conflict over (and at times loss of) land rights and access to resources (including the
attrac-tions themselves);
• damage to attractions and facilities;
• loss of authenticity and historical accuracy in interpretation; and
• selectivity in which heritage attractions are developed.

3. METHODOLOGY
In this study, after determining the desired objectives and hypotheses, and preliminary
studies on the topic, documentary and library research phase began. At this point, referring to
library resources and databases, taking notes and gathering information took place. In order
to conduct field studies, the questions and questionnaires, questionnaires were collected from

5. CONCLUSIONS
Tourism as one of the most lucrative industries in the world can play an important role
in ensuring the country's economic growth. The development of tourism in all areas of
interest to both public and private planners located. Especially in times of crisis many
stakeholders doubt the stability of tourism's contribution to GDP, but we can say that it is
crucial to look at the macroeconomic aggregates, and the way its constituents interact, to
understand tourism resilience. In this study, three different measures of investment in the
tourism sector have been evaluated. Indicators include the new opportunities for employment,
the finance (as financial indicators) and the promotion of culture and society (as a non-
financial indicators). Using statistical analysis, it was found that the investment in the tourism
sector with three parameters defined in this study The relationship is positive and significant.
And also because the correlation coefficient in the first hypothesis More than other
assumptions, so it can be concluded that investments in tourism sector Employment in the
sector more effective.
