Decreasing, The Number of Visiting Tourists in Singapore

fahmi — July 30, 2008 / 6:51 am

I read a shocking news. It said the tourists who visit Singapore is decreasing in last years. Why I said it a shocking news? Because Singapore is one of stabel destinations, especially in South East Asia, so I’m quite amazing with the news.

The causes of decreasing are the weaken of global economic and the rate is quite increasing, so many incoming tourists cancel their visiting.

Usually, more than 850,000 tourists come to Singapore and spend their money, but this year only about 800,000 tourists came. The hotel reservation is decreasing as well, from 87% into 82%. Meanwhile, the hotel cost is increasing 20%. So, no wonder if many tourists cancel their vacation. the news from here and the pic from here
