Tourism is one of the strongest drivers of world trade and prosperity. Poverty alleviation is one of the greatest global challenges. Despite turbulent times for the world’s economy, these basic facts are unlikely to change. Focusing the wealth creating power of tourism on people most in need remains an immense task and opportunity.
As what I had read about the link above, a paragraph which is stated above caught my attention. Some developed countries focuses more on how to gain and maintain the prosperity that tourism had brought on the countries economy. On the title that was given about the article, I became interested about it open up the idea to read what's inside the article. Being an HRM student, having a course of tourism as part of our semester. I wanted to learn what Tourism had brought the countries to become more develop,as being the widest industry in the whole world. And looking forward to its effect in our economy, I have noticed that our country is still striving for it's full economic growth. A question was never answered to me, we all know that there are lots of tourist attractions here in the Philippines and there are lots of tourist had been visiting her in our country, why is it that issue about poverty in our country is not yet solve ? The governments had been implementing lots of programs for the betterment of Tourism BUT there are still of our fellows who are still suffering poverty in the different areas here in the country.
Poverty Alleviation is one of the greatest global challenges, because, of course we never wanted to leave our kababayan's suffer in the consequences of poverty while others shower themselves with money and enjoying every moments with the money they had while the other people are in great need. So I'm grateful knowing that Tourism has been a great help for the poverty alleviation. As a developing country, it's the task of all people who are on the high positions to focus on the wealth creating power of tourism to other people who are in need. They must grab the opportunity for those people also to realize the loving effort of their fellow men in helping them to get out of the suffering.
There are also principles for pursuing poverty alleviation through tourism. This principles was a great help, for us to be more aggressive in maintaining the level of tourist satisfaction here in the country, and also to be more aware in planning and organizing. To control also the negative impacts that are expected to experience.
