The country is strategising towards attaining an upper middle income economy status by year 2030 (Vision 2030) using National Development Strategy 1 (NDS) and the study noted the concerns of restaurant workers and restaurateur towards Vision 2030. Recommendations to keep in line with the dictates of NDS are given from the study. The study followed a case study approach were restaurants in Manicaland province were used as a representative sample for the whole industry in Zimbabwe. Only Zimbabwe Tourism Authority (ZTA) registered players were considered in this study. Data was collected using questionnaires and SPSS version 21 in conjunction with the R software were used for data analysis. The researchers gathered data from restaurateurs, restaurant workers and key industry stakeholders including ZTA, Hospitality Association of Zimbabwe (HAZ) and Restaurant Association of Zimbabwe (ROAZ). The research results reflected that COVID-19 had impacted negatively on restaurant business in Zimbabwe; worker retrenchments and restaurateurs’ bankruptcy. For sustainable restaurant business in the future, the paper recommended the restaurateurs to join the restaurant operators association for engagement with government.

Abstract

There is clear evidence of the skill gaps between the skills offered in training institutions and the skills required by the tourism market in Tanzania. This paper intends to assess training needs among tourism businesses in the country. The study employed a qualitative method in which Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) and Key Informant Interviews were conducted among MSMEs in the tourism industry in Tanzania. It involved a total of 117 respondents (63 females and 54 males), with the majority being tourism businesses. The study revealed that tourism businesses have varying levels of basic education, as well as specific tourism education levels. The MSMEs lack different skills and competencies, due in part to their lines of business, the levels of involvement with their business, and customer transactions. There is a need to move towards a more professional tourism business development approach and practice. This can best be achieved when a greater number of tourism MSMEs in the eight tourism sub-sectors from the five circuits work more closely together in formal location-based, cross-sub-sector circuits to gain leverage on their synergies. Also, there is a need to identify tourism skills gaps and propose mitigation measures for capacity-building training initiatives that focus on tourism business development to make Tanzania destination more competitive.

Abstract

Pagbalangkas is a Filipino term, which means formulation or conceptualization. And in the conceptualization of a place branding strategy, such as the UNESCO World Heritage Site (WHS), stakeholders, specifically the government sector, must understand different factors and aspects of sustainable development. This study explicated the different issues and opportunities for conservation, and sustainable development, specifically for Samar Island Natural Park (SINP), Philippines. Specifically, the study also determines the associations of different efforts mandated and implemented by different government agencies both from the national and local, assessing the impacts and effects of current and potential plans and programs for conserving and sustaining SINP as a future UNESCO WHS and to conceptualized a framework that would highlight the basic factors on place branding development based on the case of SINP. The research used a qualitative-case study design, specifically by measuring information through focus group discussion (FGD) and content analysis on available government-issued documents. Participants from the FGD were representatives from different government agencies from the national, regional, local, and people’s organizations. The gathered information was analyzed through a repertory grid. Based on the research, conceptualizing a place branding development, such as UNESCO WHS, must determine the government organizations, institutions, and systems framework, situation analysis of the place and its community, issues, and opportunities manifested.

Abstract

The Chinese outbound market has surpassed that of any country in the world in recent years. It specifically became the leading source market for many Asian countries. In this respect, this study uses a monthly dataset of tourist arrivals from 1995 to 2019 to investigate the seasonality patterns of Chinese outbound tourists in eight tourist destinations in Asia popular among Chinese tourists. The Gini coefficient and the Seasonal Index were used to examine the seasonality patterns. The results of this research reveal a generally consistent pattern across all destinations examined, confirming the occurrence of two distinct peaks (i.e., February and July to August) and off-peak (i.e., March to June and November to December) periods. The findings further show the expansion of the Chinese market has considerably softened the seasonality in the inbound tourism of the countries studied. Finally, key implications of the study findings are discussed, highlighting some practical insights that might help practitioners manage seasonality.

Abstract

Ghana came under democratic rule from 1993-2000 after the National Democratic Congress (NDC) had won the general election conducted in December 1992. Flt. Lt. J.J. Rawlings, the Party’s leader became the President of the Fourth Republic. It was refreshing to see Ghanaians embrace democracy with renewed energy, zeal and enthusiasm. Meanwhile the tourism industry was perceived to grow at a rate of between 12% and 16% and a less costly export item. The new government undertook measures and policies to improve the tourism industry and at the same time embarked on export diversification to reap the foreign exchange that the industry could generate. The objective of this paper is to examine the measures and policies of the NDC to improve the tourism industry in order to reap the foreign exchange focusing on the role of the government as an agent of tourism development, creation of conducive environment for tourism to flourish, the provision of tourism facilities and political stability and how these factors impacted on the tourism industry in Ghana. In the final analysis an assessment is made on the NDC Government’s contribution towards tourism development.

Abstract

This paper is to explore sustainability of national parks and game reserves in Kenya. Objectives are to examine the responsibility of tourism stakeholders in sustainability of national parks and game reserves during the Covid-19; explore the benefit and cost of tourism of parks and game reserves during the Covid-19; and explore the mitigating measures by tourism stakeholders on issues affecting wildlife in parks and game reserves during the Covid-19 pandemic. The methodology is based on a literature review method by deploying a systematic literature review. The findings indicated that as much as tourism is globally seen as an income generator and foreign exchange earner but was worst hit by the pandemic. If the effects of the pandemic are not mitigated early, then the effects are harmful to the resources and environment. Tourism stakeholders should ensure posterity and fame of parks and game reserves are sustained. This paper provides information on the responsibilities of tourism stakeholders in the sustainability of parks and game reserves in Kenya as a tourism destination. The outcome of this paper implies that the tourism stakeholders may look into ways of mitigating the negative effects of tourism in the Covid-19 to ensure sustainability in the post- Covid -19 pandemic.

Abstract

Even though Asian countries are expected to become a dominant market for organic foods in the coming years, there are few studies which focused on young Asian consumers’ organic food purchase behaviour. This study aims to investigate how attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavioural control, and health concerns influence consumers’ intention to purchase and consume organic foods. A purposive sampling method was adopted for this study and a total of 289 usable questionnaires were collected for empirical testing of the postulated hypotheses using SPSS and structural equation modelling (SEM). The results showed that attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavioural control and health concern positively influenced intention. In addition, subjective norm positively influenced attitude while attitude played a partial mediation effect on the relationship between subjective norm and intention. Lastly, the theoretical and practical implications as well as the limitations of the study are discussed.

Abstract

The problem of low domestic tourists’ visitation to national parks still persists and this is a challenge. Therefore, the purpose of this paper was to examine the moderating effect of novelty on experiences and enjoyment of national parks. This paper specifically analyzed the moderating effect of novelty on direct experiences and enjoyment of southern national parks among domestic tourists guided by the types of tourists’ theory. This study was conducted in Nyerere National Park, Tanzania. Mixed methods approach is applied by adopting quantitative and qualitative to understand enjoyment in national parks. The quantitative approach provided the generalization of the findings while the qualitative findings supplemented the quantitative results. This study uses Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) to analyze data collected from a survey sample size of 360 domestic tourists. Qualitative data is analyzed using content analysis. The findings indicate that there is a significant moderation effect of novelty on the relationship between direct experiences and enjoyment of southern national parks among domestic tourists. The practical implication is for the government and tourism stakeholders to consider improving communication and road connections to the park and other tourists’ facilities.

Abstract

War on drugs campaign commenced in the Duterte Administration in 2016. The campaign resulted to worldwide criticisms which spread negative word-of-mouth about the Philippines. The study applied the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) by Ajzen and Fishbein (1991) to test the negative word-of-mouth (WOM) communication regarding war on drugs to tourists’ intention to visit the Philippines. Structural Equation Modelling was utilized to determine the relationship among the three factors of TPB namely, Attitude, Subjective Norm, and Perceived Behavioural Control to tourist intention. The data was collected from 242 foreign passport holders and through an interview conducted with the Department of Tourism (DOT). The result of the study reveals that Attitude does not affect tourist intention to travel. On the other hand, Subjective Norm has the strongest influence on tourist intention followed by Perceived Behavioural Control but does not necessarily affect their decision-making behaviour towards visiting the Philippines regardless of the campaign.
