On the benefits of tourism to society
With the development of society and the progress of science and technology, the economic level of a country has become the basic standard to measure a country. A country has many sources of economy, such as various industries and manufacturing industries that create a lot of economic value. In the eyes of others, the development of heavy industry or service industry is the most effective and best way to improve the national economy. As a result, many countries are indifferent to tourism. However, tourism can sometimes become a necessary tool for national economic development and one of the magic weapons to improve people's living standards.
The development of tourism can promote economic development. For some countries with small area, limited natural resources and technological development, tourism has undoubtedly become one of the choices to replace the main industry. In the Caribbean, the Bahamas, although the local geographical conditions limit the development of traditional agriculture, provides a lot of resources for the development of tourism industry. In the Bahamas, the local tourism industry accounts for more than 50% of the national economy, and tourism is the first pillar of the local economy. It is reported that the local tourism development and economic benefits have taken an important share for a long time. Every year, this place receives about 5 million domestic and international tourists, and the development of the local tourism industry has generated more than 2 billion dollars of economic output for the Bahamas, which is equivalent to more than 13.8 billion yuan of economic output. It can be seen that tourism can also become a country's primary industry.
The development of tourism can increase employment opportunities. For example, the tourism industry of Yan 'an City of China has brought better economic benefits to the society. The city's individual industrial and commercial businesses this oh that in 1989 only 1141 households, about 4500 people, to 1994 4582 households, more than 19,200 people, the number of households increased by about four times, the number of people is increased by 4.28 times. In the meantime, many engaged in tourism services for the business, catering industry, transportation industry, photography industry, arts and crafts industry, to solve the employment problem of a large number of unemployed people, promote the development of production. It can be seen that tourism can reduce the unemployment rate, thus reducing the government's burden of helping the unemployed, and thus increasing the government's input in other aspects, such as public construction, so as to improve people's living standards.
Tourism is a more energy efficient way to develop the economy. It can make the economy run longer and benefit more. If a country vigorously develops its heavy industry or other industries, natural resources will be less and less, and the environment may be damaged to some extent. Although the economy has been greatly increased, the cost is too great. The natural mountains and rivers have been lost, but the wealth and wealth have been gained, and the living standards of the people have also decreased with the deterioration of the environment. However, the development of tourism is a different story. Tourism focuses on environmental protection, sticks to the concept of "lucids and lush mountains are gold and silver mountains", and pays attention to economic development. It can be regarded as one of the best choices for win-win situation.
In a word, developing tourism can not only bring good economic effect, but also build an environmentally friendly society. It has to be said that this is really a policy of killing two birds with one stone. I hope in my future life, I can see the vigorous development of tourism and the improvement of people's real living standards. If there is economic growth, it will be the icing on the cake.
