BASIC CONCEPT IN TOURISM PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT

Related Papers

Ramon B A Alampay

This is the tourism chapter of The Civil Society Assessment of the 2004-2010 Medium Term Philippine Development Plan (MTPDP) produced by the Caucus of Development NGO Networks (CODE-NGO). The overall project assessed the performance of the Philippine Government relative to the MTPDP targets, and examined the responsiveness of the MTPDP framework to the development agenda of basic sectors and civil society. The paper finds that the MTPDP’s implied approach to poverty reduction from tourism tends to limit the scope and breadth of tourism’s poverty reduction effect to the priority tourism destinations and their vicinity. Nor does the Plan integrate the concerns for environmental sustainability and community involvement and empowerment. Forms of tourism such as ecotourism, agritourism and cultural tourism end up being treated by both DOT and the other government agencies as niche activities that are peripheral to their main activities. Recommendations are given to introduce a broader agenda for Philippine tourism based not only on growth, but also on equity and sustainability. From a single-minded focus on expanding the Philippine tourism industry, a multi-pronged program is recommended to also promote tourism as a complementary or alternative (where appropriate) development strategy for reducing poverty, promoting sustainable resource management, and empowering disadvantaged groups around the country.

Gracia Bacz

The paper examines tourism in the Philippines, a South East Asian nation which has yet to reach its potential as an international destination. Conditions in the country are analysed and possible reasons for its relatively poor performance are discussed. Various barriers to development are identified, but political circumstances emerge as a key consideration whereby instability in assorted manifestations has impeded the operation of the industry, investment and policy making. While experiences of destination development are distinctive, the particular example offers insights into general processes and underlying dynamics.

Philippine Institute for Development Studies, …

Divina Edralin

The Philippines, through tourism, aspires to become a stronger player in the integrated travel industry of today. Yet, the country realizes that in order to do so, it must conserve, protect and strengthen the cultural, historical and natural resources upon which the Philippines draws its unique competitive advantages. All these in a manner that can be sustained for the benefit and enjoyment of future generations of Filipinos. This book, a collection of research papers funded by the Philippine APEC Study Center Network (PASCN), reflects the scope and complexity of sustainable tourism development. The various papers also mirror the complexity of sustainable tourism development and hint at the multidisciplinary approach that this mode of tourism needs to succeed. Each paper applies a different disciplinary framework to its particular tourism problem: economics, sociology, anthropology, environmental science, management science, human resources development, and others. Each paper also provides a unique academic angle on sustainability and tourism.

Riga renounces Moscow Suburb name in move to shed soviet echoes

O n the eve of Russia's Victory Day, celebrated on May 9, the authorities in Riga have decided to rename the district on the right bank of the Daugava river. The area formerly known as Moscow Suburb, situated in the heart of Latvia's capital, will be changed.

The city's urban development commission stated that these changes are part of the ongoing efforts to eliminate names tied to the Soviet occupation.

The Moscow Suburb in Riga will be renamed

“There will be no more names in Riga glorifying Moscow. There will be no more Moscow Suburb as a name either,” the vice mayor of Riga, Edvards Ratnieks, announced.

The district, known so far as Moscow Suburb (or Maskachka), represents one of the oldest areas of Riga, located along the eastern route towards Moscow. In its vicinity is a notable building reminiscent of a Stalinist palace, the Latvian Academy of Sciences.

The Moscow Suburb will shed its name, which suggests Russian influence, and revert to its historical name, Latgale Suburb.

Another step in Latvia moving away from pro-Russian names

Local television LSM recalled that last year, Latgale Park and Latgale Street had their historical names restored after being named after the Russian capital. Latgale is a historical region located in the eastern part of Latvia.

Following the authorities' decision, the name Latgale Suburb will soon be updated in the national and municipal cartographic and geospatial information systems.
