“…For the case of Turkey for instance, one of the early studies on tourism demand by Uysal and Crompton (1984) [21] shows that real per capita income in the host countries, relative exchange rates, transportation costs and promotional expenses drive international tourist arrivals. In similar vein, Onder et al (2009) [22] also found that the most significant variables explaining international tourist arrivals in Turkey were real exchange rates, per capita GDP of host as well as home countries and quality of transportation.…”

Abstract:The travel and tourism industry has been growing in importance for several developing countries. It has not only generated considerable foreign exchange revenues but has also contributed to the overall output and socio-economic development of these countries. Within the Asia and Pacific region, data for 2014 indicates that Malaysia was ranked very highly at no. 26 out of the 184 countries in the world in terms of the relative importance of the contribution of the travel and tourism industry to its national output. In this light, this paper aims to undertake an empirical examination of the factors driving international tourist arrivals into Malaysia. The paper attempts to identify the causal determinants of the growth of the travel and tourism industry, using quarterly data from 2000 to 2012, under a Geweke causality framework. The empirical results suggest Malaysia's government expenditures on tourism promotion as well as infrastructure investments such as enhancing airport facilities are causal and significant determinants of growth in the travel and tourism industry.

“…Price attributes of a destination are a predominant factor in tourism demand literature with numerous findings concluding that travelers are sensitive to exchange rates (Crouch, 1995;Dwyer, et al, 2002;Önder, Candemir, Kumral, 2009;Patsouratis, Frangouli, Anastasopouls, 2005). The price of the tourism product has two parts: the cost of travel to a destination and cost for the tourist while in the destination.…”

“…Grad Cuenca tek odnedavno ima uvida u profil posjetitelja putem tromjesečnih izvještaja (GIER, June 2016). To je rezultat rada Općinske fondacije "Turizam za Cuencu" (OF) koja je osnovana za promociju turizma s ulogom koordinatora razvoja regionalnog turizma i predstavlja središnjeg dionika u literature (Agndal and Elbe, 2007;Cellini, 2011;Culiuc, 2014;Dogru, Sirakaya-Turk, and Crouch, 2017;Eilat and Einav, 2004;Huang, Tsaur, and Yang, 2012;Leonidou, 2004;Martins, Gan, and Ferreira-Lopes, 2017;Mckercher, 1998;McKercher, 2008;OECD, 2008;Önder, Candemir, and Kumral, 2009;Pillmayer and Scherle, 2014;Rodriguez-Giron and Vanneste, 2018;Squalli, Wilson, and Hugo, 2010;Su and Lin, 2014;Tavares and Leitão, 2017;A.

SAŽETAK: Zajednicama domaćinima glavni je cilj destinaciju učiniti što boljom kako bi privukla željene međunarodne posjetitelje i to na način koji je usklađen s razvojnim ciljevima lokalne zajednice. Da bi se to postiglo, neophodno je da svi dionici iz raznih sektora i na različitim lokacijama rade na postizanju zajedničkih ciljeva. Naši su ciljevi: istražiti kako povećati društveni kapital destinacije u cilju ulaska na međunarodna tržišta; testirati integrativni model (iModel) koji se zasniva na sistemskom mišljenju; razmotriti odnos između sistemskog mišljenja, turizma i društvenog kapitala. U ovome radu istražujemo primjer Područja biosfere masiva Cajas (CMBA) u južnom Ekvadoru, čije je emitivno tržište Njemačka. Ulazak na drugo tržište u većoj je mjeri određen unutarnjim kolektivnim kapacitetima nego vanjskim uvjetima. Ti se kapaciteti mogu dodatno potaknuti povećanjem društvenog kapitala za što je potrebna pomoć svih dionika. KLJUČNE RIJEČI: turistička destinacija, društveni kapital, sistemsko mišljenje, ulazak na međunarodno tržište, iModel ABSTRACT: Enhancing a destination to attract the desired international visitors and ensuring that those enhancements align with local development goals is a major aim for host communities. Thus, it is necessary that actors from diverse sectors and at different locations work towards common goals. Our aims are: to explore how to enhance a destination's Social Capital (SC) to access international markets; to test a Systems Thinking (ST) based Integrative Model (iModel); and, to discuss the relationship between ST, tourism and SC. The Cajas Massif Biosphere Area (CMBA), in southern Ecuador, is the destination case study. The source market is Germany. Market access is more determined by internal collective capacities than by external conditions. These capacities can be fuelled by enhancing SC. A facilitating actor is key for such enhancement.
