TASK 1:
LO1: Understanding the rationale for planning in the
traveling and tourism industry
1.1 How the stake holders are getting benefit from planning of
tourism developments
Philippines is a country where tourism is the most popular business in the country, and it is
one of the huge economy boosters for the country. As the agriculture and another source of
business is not so strong but as per as the greenery and the historic places are active in the
country for that reason tourism is the proper business of that country. The climate or the
weather of the country is very much suitable for tourism. The country is full of greenery and
water, so the sustainable tourism is the best option. For these case and the reasons of
sustainable tourism, the government wants to preserve the culture, forest and the entire
ecosystem of the country because it has a huge impact on the Philippines economy (Ashton,
2014). The government, tourism department and some other business organization are the
stake holder of the tourism. During the time of planning for tourism that time the involvement
of the stake holder are required because as they are the part of the tourism department, they
also can give inputs to the plan regarding the proper business. The benefit of the stake holders
is gain profit and to promote the business among the people. Traveling and tourism is one of
the fast progressive industry across the world and Philippines is going well in this business.
In tourism destination stake holders refers to the host and the tourist. They also give
preference to the business sector, public sectors and non-profitable sectors for better business
in tourism and to develop the tourism. As Per as the world tour organization stake holders is
dived into three major sectors: local community or the government, environment support and

the tourism industry. The role of these stake holders in these tourism industry to create
opportunity in employment, business, income and foreign currency exchange through the
tourism service (Getz and Timur, 2012). They have another .benefit by developing the
destination and make it beautiful from where they can collect the service tax for the
beatification and for providing the service by which they can promote their business more
powerfully. The stake holders always keep a good relationship with the suppliers and the tour
company because they are the important part of the business by them only the tourists visit
the country, and the suppliers use to fulfil the demand of the tourist. Thus from here, we can
understand the role and the benefits of the stake holders of tourism (Sligo.et.al.2013).
1.2 The advantages and disadvantages of public or private sector
tourism planning
Partnership
When a tourist destination is developed at that point the private and the public area performed
a crucial character in progress particularly the destination that is tourist friendly. The public
sector uses to set the plans and the policies, making the place standard for the tourist for
visiting. Public sectors play a vital role in developing, creating the rules for tourism,
developing the main infrastructure, use to conduct the market for advertisement and
promotion for those areas where tourist use to visit frequently. The public sector is more
involved in making rules and regulation regarding tourism. The public sector uses to develop
the tourist destination where the tourist can enjoy and stay properly; they use to construct and
manage the place as per as the tourist demand. The public sector gives activities, space, and
product which are made for public use (Ruhanen, 2013).

SUSTAINABLE TOURISM
As per as the private sector the private sector also has important roles to play regarding
tourism. They also take part in preparing for activities, product, and space but then also they
are more focused on profit-oriented business and development (Mowforth and Munt, 2015).
Here the product, activities, and space are very much different from the public sectors here
the product refers to the involvement, service, and hospitality, activity refers to group
activity, and event development and space refers to the development of suitable location
(Weaver and Jin, 2016). The private sectors always focused on developing and giving
accommodation in apartments and hotels, making cafes and restaurants fo0r the beverages
and food, for entertainment shopping malls, parks, cinema halls are being made by the private
sectors. The incentives are provided by the public sector for the .investments made by the
private sectors for developing the tourism destination. There is the good connection among
the stake holders on making the tourist friendly environment for tourism. The tourist will
have a great experience and will enjoy the tour for these tourism friendly concept. Both the
private sector and the public sector are interrelated which is helping to develop the tourism of
Philippines. Sometime the public sector act as the pioneer when the private sector is running
out of money rather it is a vice versa process for tourism which helps the country.

LO2: Understand different approaches to tourism
planning and development
2.1 Features of tourism development planning at different levels
In a country, tourism development planning has four level or stages. Every planning structure
is interdependent on each other via these effective features of the various stages or level. As
travel and tourism industry has four levels and stages such as international level, national
level, regional level and sub-regional level.
Intercontinental or international level: Flow of programming and support of tourism,
tours, and tourists are the contents of the internal level of tourism development planning,
which are operated in many countries. The nearby and neighboring development strategies
help the operating countries to develop the system, style, and management of their country
for attracting more tourists. Philippines use these international standards of marketing
programs and promotional strategies for getting the maximum returns of their planning and
investments.
National level: In this level of tourism development, both long term and short term
objectives are kept in mind to achieve the maximum profits and goodwill out of these
strategies. In Philippines tourism development, the structure consists of the service control
and accommodation of the tourists. The legislative factors, policies, and connections are the
structural sites of the governing bodies for the national level in the development of tourism
planning (Mason, 2015).

Regional level: This level is completely associated with the development of the specified
areas to attract tourism interest towards the destination along with strategic promotions and
policies. Philippines regional level planning provides the location and transportation
facilities. Jobs and other functional, supportive acts are controlled by the regional
development planning level to facilitate education and accommodation. The different
destination of Philippines is divided in the regionals for implementing the strategies and
planning of national level.
Sub-regional level: The features and functions of the regionals are divided into the sub
sections for implementing procedures and policies that are effective and easy. The collected
information of the sub-regional levels of Philippines help in the strategic planning for
development and services.
2.2 Significance of interactive planning systems and processes in
tourism development
The public and private partnership collaboration have accomplished the formation of tourism
development planning in the Philippines for interactive planning systems and procedures that
focus on the following issues in the development process:

 Volume and values are changing in the tourism sector, and local authorities take the
change to measure it, so that accurate information is gathered and are forwarded to the
national level of development planning systems. Thus, the effectiveness of the
procedures is measured by combing the information regarding changes in volume and
values.
 Interactive processes and systems make it easier for the teams to share available
information and discuss for analysing the positive and negative impacts on the
development processes. The local community analyses the impact of the visitors for
enhancing support and services in the positive aspect and that can directly promote
the local market and literary.
 The various businesses at the destination development are easy to operate with
implementing the different practices and policies in accordance with the government.
The functions and approaches to Philippines business are governed by the local
authorities in the country.
 Interactive systems and procedures help in making more sophisticated marketing
development possible along with responsibility and planning. Effort and contribution
of development team multiply the effectiveness of the work.
 Development authorities like national and regional levels are benefited with
information that is collected from the surveys and evaluation events. These programs
are organized by the authorities that help in monitoring and guiding the work of
development effectively.
 In order to meet the objectives of the development programs and organize sustainable
environment for tourism development, the competitiveness of participants plays a
great role and even the balanced local community strategies.

2.3 Different methods available to measure tourist impact
Here cannot be a particular technique that will amount the impression of tourism in the
Philippines. There are two replicas and approaches that are usable for analyzing the numerous
impacts of tourism on economies. The economic impact model is used to analyze the
economic impact, whereas, on the contrary, a steam model is used for monitoring the
economic impacts along with the trends.
Economic impact model
The values and volume changes are effectively measured, analysed and estimated with this
model. This techniques is used to estimate the revenue produced from the holiday business in
the Philippines with entire employment supports in the production to authorisation of the
state. It can analyse the straight effects from the people (tourist) those who are investing in
the commercial. This prototypical considers secondary, and indirect, convinced impression
where source sequence connected and helpful amenities allied wages are measured. The
levels have to provide the information to the model in progress scheduling for reaching the
concluding decisions.
Cambridge economic impact model
Economic impact replica's improved type is this kind of ideal because it usages the top-down
method for analyzing the impression on financial morals via tourists. The greater amount of
low-level data is used by this model from the level of visitors and values generated from
them. The prototypical proposals the extra cultured assessment of financial impressions on
the Philippines. Within two stages of evaluation of impact, the model first determines the
worth and size of the tourists and formerly analyze the influences of tourists on the native
public in the nation.
STEAM model

produce the real consequences for very nearly each zone:
 Facts near about the usage of lodging amenities by proportions. It is deliberate from
the sort of lodging amenities in the Philippines.
 The ability of lodging provides to serve the vacation for visitors.
 Appearance on a call to magnetisms and occasions in the nation.
 Data delivered by traveller data hub of Philippines.
With these four inputs of the steam model, it is actual to analyze the impact of visitors on
economic changes (Ruhanen, 2013). Pro-poor vacation industry is not a process precisely but
a planned instrument to trace or locate the alterations in deficiency by visits in the nation at
the end place. The fluctuations in public lifecycle charms and deficiency quotient at the
superior terminus of Philippines are restrained through some appointments within month at a
journey's end.
