Commentary: Chinese tourists are travelling again, but mostly in their own country - Channel News Asia

Quick Summary:

The world is still waiting for Chinese travellers and their tourist dollars to return, but it is domestic travel that is booming in China, says tourism professor Sam Huang.

With China’s economy slowing down - it grew 4.7 per cent in the second quarter this year, down from the previous quarter’s 5.3 per cent growth - boosting tourism service consumption has become a priority.

Take Singapore, for example, where China has reclaimed its spot as its largest source of tourists once again, thanks to a mutual visa-free entry policy that took effect in February.About 1.45 million visitors from China travelled to Singapore between January and June, surpassing Indonesia’s 1.3 million visitors.
