“…COVID-19 has further accelerated our understanding of consumption, our environment, and how we live. These considerations then come to inform our understanding of tourism (Kock et al 2020b), with small communities and rural destinations being the beneficiary, such as the Orkney Islands in the far north of Scotland (McGee and Arpi 2021), or the Chatham Islands in the Pacific Ocean (Cardow and Wiltshier 2010;Sok 2022). These small islands are running at maximum occupancy due to the rise of ecotourism.…”

Thanks to Thompson Rivers University, especially the Research and Graduate Studies Office, for granting me a sabbatical in 2022, during which I completed a good deal of the work for this volume. I am also grateful for its support of my research assistant, Brendan Coulter. Thompson Rivers University is located on the unceded land of the Secwepemc, within Secwepemc'ulucw, the traditional territory of the Secwepemc people.Much of the labour on both this book and its predecessor, Creative Tourism in Smaller Communities: Place, Culture, and Local Representation (University of Calgary Press, 2021), occurred at my sunny loft flat in Mainz, Germany, in the house owned by my good friend Dr. Stephanie Doetsch. It is such a pleasure to acknowledge the affection and encouragement she regularly extends around my scholarly work and its attendant thrilling details. I am also happy to thank my colleague and friend Dr. Nancy Duxbury for her continuing participation in my scholarly projects. She is usually busy editing her own books, but always makes time to share her expertise in mine.Twenty-eight authors contributed to this international volume, and all have endured scores of my emails and deadlines in order to co-create this book; not a single one of them has let me down. I am very grateful to them for all their work.Once again, I want to acknowledge with gratitude my long and strong relationship with the University of Calgary. This is my second book with University of Calgary Press, headed by its director, the inimitable Brian Scrivener. He and his stellar staff, including Helen Hajnoczky, Melina Cusano, and Alison Cobra, work every day to bring peer-reviewed writing to all readers through open access-they are stardust, they are golden. Unsung heroes Ryan Perks and JoAnne Burek once again bring their copy-editing and indexing expertise to this volume. The comments made by both scholarly reviewers were also helpful.Finally. My son Dana Scherf-Silk has accompanied me on this long academic career; I was still an assistant professor when he was born. Clearly one can never really reflect the full scope of experience a child brings, but I can and do, with love, celebrate Dana by dedicating this book to him.

This study explores the involvement of Malaysian indigenous peoples (Orang Asli) at both the individual and community level to analyse the impact of tourism development on the economic and socio-cultural aspects of their communities. The study was conducted at two tourism sites, Bukit Tadom and Cameron Highlands. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 14 participants from the Orang Asli community and Orang Asli employees and management at the sites. Data were thematically analysed. Orang Asli communities recognised the opportunities that tourism development brings to their social and economic conditions, although it is not wholly beneficial. They also want to be actively involved in tourism planning. The study contributes to the development of indigenous peoples, especially in Malaysia, promoting a new perspective on long-term tourism development. It also highlights several
