The industry make efforts to reducing gap between current and desirable current state. Tourism
industry development depends on visitor numbers and their profit from visitors. Interactive
planning has little significance-

2.3) Different methods to measure tourist impact-
Ecological tourism environment needs new qualitative evaluate schemes which are useful
for assessment of economic, social etc. factors. Ecological tourism will have some impact on the
3

environment and it needs management or control. Nature based tourism is strongly relayed on
the environment quality more than any other tourism factors (Boley, and Hammett, 2017). Eco
system include production of goods and services, basic requirements of life, surviving situations.
Quality of experienced of tourist also must be maintained.
Methods to measure tourist impacts
Economic Impact model
The model is very much effective to analyse the estimated form the value and volume of
the tourist. This economic model also used to estimate the income generated from this industry.
STEAM Model
This model or technique enhanced the economic impact model as it uses the top down
approach to analyse value. On the other hand, this helps to monitored the activity offer the
information related to the impact of analysing the current trends on day staying visitors.
TASK 3
3.1) Sustainability in tourism development-
Tourism development industry start making
planning for development, those are-
Country and local tourism visitors wishing for
greater involvement with local people and

They like to take participation in different
activities, which increase the interaction with
tourism development community.
Tourism sectors have their on lifestyle, social
culture, environment etc. which make local
tourist community sensitive (Sidali and
Schamel, 2017).
Tourism sector does not destroy natural and
economic resources, an industry that is
followed these principals appreciate cultural
values and generate more revenue and earn
4

more profit.
3.2) Factors that may prevent/hinder sustainable tourism development-
The factors that prevent/hinders sustainable
tourism in a nation is its political factor that
have distribution of power and resources,
acquire the power, public issues. Political
power, wealth contribution, natural disaster,

not much like such investment. Different
religious affect tourist industry, some visitors
like to visit their religious community places
and invest money for development of these
places.

3.3) Different stages in planning for sustainability-
Planning for sustainable
tourism development refers to
pre planning and includes
variant of research activities
and analysis decisions for
development of tourism.
Planning for sustainability

two steps-
Stage 1 In this first stage of
the tourism sustainability is to

all issues of stakeholders.
Stage 5: In this stage issues are
analysed by the proper
research methods.
Stage 6: After issues and
conflicts has been resolved

TASK 4
4.1) Evaluation of methods of resolving conflict of developing tourism destination-
The main conflicts arise among tourist, tourism or stakeholders. These kinds of conflicts
make negative impact on tourist sector and profit. To resolve these conflicts Philippines
Development Tourism can use some methods, which are below-
 Arrange meetings- To become more familiar with problems among them they can arrange
meetings on a particular quarter.
 Negotiation- Negotiate between stakeholders and tourism sectors to make more profit and
attract more tourist or provide them qualitative facilities.
 Profit sharing- Make a legal agreement and share profit at fixed percentages.
 Medication : it is the another method for resolving the conflict or to ensure well-being of
a developing tourism destination. This method is based on mutually acceptable
agreement, that affect the long term target growth in order to meet the sustainability
development growth. Medication process is just related to the target which considered to
the best possible action plan to meet the better objective task.
7

In order to develop a better understanding between resolving conflicts of interest among different
opportunities and task.
4.2) Implications of balancing supply and demand-
Implications of supply and demand depend on reach the customers with required and
desired products and services within effective time. The supply law Philippine Development
Tourism shows that hike in prices at visiting places and tourism industry increase their service
amount. Provide tourism services according to tourist demands at resalable price balanced the
supply- demand chain (. Rasoolimanesh, and et.dl 2017). Available a smart tourist package and
make more profit maintain the tourism sector profit and development.
It is very necessary to keep balance between supply or demand, in order to meet the
demand of tourism sector supply is needed to be considered in order to satisfy. Investment driven
strategy. Apart from that, meeting long term growth will help to discourage the new developing
growth in order to meet out the best possible action plan. Along with that, it ensuring
sustainability towards the tourism is also needed to secure the growth of the tourism as well as
ecological balance.
4.3) Moral and ethical issues of enclave tourism-
In enclave tourism, tourist do not much like to stay at the same place. This kind of
facilities make them uncomfortable. Tourist comes from different religions and they do not like
interference of other community. Tourist love their privacy and wanna to enjoy their holidays.
Enclave tourism should have to adopt such moral and ethical issues where tourist enjoy their
privacy and enjoy holidays. Visitors have their own separate stay facilities and meals facilities.
Enclave tourism sector is the activity or process which help in small geographical area in
order to satisfy their more customers or clients in more appropriate manner. This activity
generally has been taken by government bodies who have a small plan or limited resources to
spend more time. This affect the overall tourism development sector which is provided over
these places is very high due to the highly saturated market.
TASK 5
5.1) Current issues with tourism development in developing country-
Philippines is a developing country and tourism sectors of this developing country faced many
challenges. Some challenges are below-
8

 Political issues- Government policies for tourism sector impact the tourism business.
Government prepared few difficult policies at local and national level. Visitors are not
feel comfortable and start avoid Philippines tour.
 High market policies- Philippines has high market policies for tourist. It is not
compulsory that every one can afford high market prices. Its market is not a developed
market where tourist easily can sped their money (Boley, and Hammett, 2017).
 Visa policy- Getting visa for Philippines is not easy. Tourist have to face many problems
to get visa.
In Canada tourism impacts are just opposite from Philippines. They provide qualitative facilities
and earn more profit.
Canada is a developing and its tourism significantly for the development of the economy.
On the other hand, Philippine is the another most effective and prominent leading destination
growth in order to meet out the best tourism market in order to meet out the best goals. Overall,
it helps to bring new services and better developing growth for the tour operators.
5.2) Future development of tourism in Philippines-
For increase the tourist market in Philippines has to develop its tourist destinations and
provide qualitative facilities. Develop market conditions and increase economic condition.
Philippines increase its social, economic environment where tourist feel secure and enjoy their
holiday. Tourism industry should be have a deal with government to improve tourism conditions.
Government foams such kind of policies which are quite easy for tourist (Sidali and Schamel,
2017).
There are some major areas of development that needs to be focused
Environmental : in this factor tourism country requires to adopt the better environment
and less wastage of water and energy in order to increase the better environment. Overall, it
helps to attract number of new visitors.
Social : Social factor needs to be developed in to more appropriate manner in order to get
the new supported in order to increasing. It also helps to take the new management growth. In
this task it needs to focused on the local groups, employees etc.
CONCLUSION
Tourism development has negative and positive impact on tourism destination place.
Communities are scare with unwanted or unexpected developments. They faced many problems
9

from unfixed tourism development. Tourism planning is necessary to make maximum profit,
And minimise the disadvantages of development. Develop policies that will be acceptable by
local people. Planner and governments must measure environmental and social impacts of tourist
sectors.
