Travel and Tour Asia September issue 2013

Asia has always been a strong player in the tourism industry and in 2013 it has managed to escalate its status in the industry despite including India despite the falling rupee factor.

In an uneven global economic environment, tourism results have been more than positive in most regions of Asia as compared to the rest of the world in the first half of 2013. Asia and the Pacific saw a 6% rise which has exceeded all expectations, boosted by South-East Asia with a 12% growth and South Asia observed 7% rise in tourism.

The impact of this growth is seen in every sector of tourism generating employment and trying to attain stability in the volatile market. The hotel industry according to STR did see a dismal start  at the beginning of the year but managed to revive its gains after the Chinese New Year with Southeast Asia, Australia and Oceania reporting an almost 6.0-percent increase in ADR. Some countries in Asia are doing excellently while others are experiencing setbacks due to the raising dollars. But despite the economic juggernaut Asia's soaring hotel industry should make a convincing read in our theme story.

For better glimpse of Asia there is a lot to read in this month's edition along with the regular features of our magazine. We are hoping that you will enjoy and send your feedbacks.
