Analysis of the Indian Ocean tsunami and tourist destination

The disaster of the geographical position of general said that in Southeast Asia and South Asia, the earthquake source is in Indonesia, followed by tsunami-affected countries mainly in Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Maldives, India and Bangladesh, Burma near the Indian Ocean and Africa, a small number of areas affected by the tsunami, but not too serious, it might have hit Indonesia, India, Sri Lanka and Thailand.

Southeast Asia is China's traditional tourist hot spot destination, so this disaster also involves a lot of tour groups to China's security and the New Year's Day and Spring Festival period of time traveling plans. Here to do some simple analysis.

Southeast Asian countries in the Indian Ocean is not within the scope of Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, the Philippines not affected by the earthquake and tsunami, business as usual.

In southern Thailand near the Indian Ocean island suffered heavy losses, the most famous tourist destination of Phuket, Phang Nga and Krabi were not spared Among them, Phuket is the most serious disaster; while near the Pacific islands, such as Thailand, Koh Samui, it is calm. Malaysia, too, affected by the tsunami impact is only the vicinity of the northern part of Penang and Langkawi (loss is not large), the Pacific coast everything is normal. Singapore has no casualties were reported. Therefore, the Pacific coast of West Malaysia, East Malaysia and Singapore are safe, less affected.

Indonesia is an earthquake source, while the largest number of Chinese tourists to Bali and Lombok Island, next door, away from the epicenter, survived the tsunami, this disaster is almost no serious impact on the island of Bali. The hardest hit island of Sumatra is not the Chinese people has always been a tourist destination.

South Asia, southern India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, the Maldives are the tsunami-hit areas. Chinese tourists (including self-help travelers) to travel in India rarely go to southern India, usually in the north Delhi, Jaipur, Varanasi to Hyderabad do not have much, so hard-hit southern India on the Chinese, Indian travel much. Myanmar is also severely damaged the southern coast of China, tourists can also be ignored. Bangladesh is not a Chinese tourist destination.

In 2004, Sri Lanka, in China a lot of promotional activities, a number of geographic, tourist-type magazines have great coverage of Sri Lanka tourism, but the market still is no specific tours of Sri Lanka, self-help travel has just begun, and the northern and central parts of Sri Lanka, tourism resources are abundant, and the resulting tsunami disaster on the impact of China's tourist market is also very limited.

News reports said that the Maldives capital, Male, flooded, do not see more coverage. According to travel agent friend that some of the islands, and badly damaged.

Taken together, although the losses of this disaster, but if a tourist destination from the perspective of analysis, the greatest impact is Thailand's Phuket island, Krabi area and the Maldives. New Year's regiment will certainly be abolished, two places during the Spring Festival which is difficult to recover and travel plans of the Spring Festival charter flights may be frustrated, therefore, the Spring Festival originally planned to go to Phuket and the Maldives to make early intention to keep an eye to changing circumstances.
