  • 2006 XTERRA Saipan Press Guide.Qxd
    AND THE SAIPAN SPORTS FEST MARCH 31 - APRIL 9 2006 PRESS GUIDE ssppoonnssoorrss The 2006 XTERRA Saipan Championship is presented by the Marianas Visitors Authority, and sponsored by the Pacific Islands Club, Paul Mitchell, XTERRA Gear, and Coca~Cola Beverage Co. (Micronesia), Inc. iinnttoo tthhee jjuunnggllee . AT THE 5th ANNUAL XTERRA SAIPAN CHAMPIONSHIP XTERRA is the world’s premier off-road multisport event. An extreme competition, the XTERRA format combines swimming with mountain biking and trail running. It has been described as one part triathlon, one part mountain bike race, and one part “survival of the fittest”. With its white sand beaches, warm water, jungle trails, and secret caves it’s easy to see how the XTERRA Saipan Championship became the “crown jewel” of the XTERRA Global Tour. In 2006 there will be more than 100 XTERRA races in 17 countries…but none quite like this one! The race starts with a 1.5-kilometer swim in the crystal clear waters fronting Micro Beach, follows with a 30k mountain bike ride that traverses island terrain to the top of Mount Tapotchau (the highest point on the island at 1,545 feet elevation) and finishes with a 12k trail run that takes competitors past World War II relics and through secret jungles and caves. The event is a qualifier for the 2006 Nissan Xterra World Championship held in Maui on October 29 - with 34 slots available to the top finishers in each age group (see page 12 for details). The race will also award points to amateur athletes racing in this year’s Nissan Xterra USA Championship Series.

  • The Attitudes of Japanese Tourists Towards Cultural Heritage Attractions in the Cnmi

With Japanese visitors making up the single largest contingent of tourists to Micronesia, there is a need to examine their attitudes towards the cultural and historical elements of the islands. Are they in fact interested in such attributes and what are their expectations for a visit? This paper examines the attitudes and expectations of a co- hort of Japanese tourists to the CNMI and outlines the challenge faced by the cultural heritage and tourism management authorities. Tourism has been regarded as the panacea to nese (Data: Guam Visitors Bureau; Marianas cure the economic troubles of the Pacific Visitors Authority; Palau Visitor Authority). Island communities, particularly of the Pacific Given the size of the market on the one microstates. Mass tourism, particularly from hand, and the desire of the regional tourism Japan, has long reached Guam (Page & Lawton development agencies to develop cultural and 1996; Iversen 1997), but also, more recently, eco-tourism opportunities (Heather et al 2000; Saipan and Palau (Page & Lawton 1996).

An esti- mated two thousand businesses closed down, teachers’ contracts were not renewed, and many other public ser- vices had to be scaled back. By year’s end, there was even serious talk of reducing work hours for government employees. Meanwhile, the legislature passed several measures affecting the presence of guest workers, and a seemingly coordinated campaign to close the garment industry down resulted in a spate of negative media publicity. This resulted in increased pressure for Congress to adopt legisla- tion to federalize immigration and the minimum wage, and even the customs territory of the Commonwealth. Governor Teno inherited a severely depleted treasury. The new adminis- tration found that the tax-rebate holding account (holding withheld tax money for eventual rebate to the tax- payers), which was supposed to con- tain $34 million, contained only $2 million. The missing $32 million has never been identified. In addition, the Northern Mariana Islands public auditor charged that the Mari- anas Visitors Bureau had misspent up Despite a more conciliatory and less to $12 million in illegal contracts, and confrontational administration in that the governor (Lang) had spent Saipan, relations between the Com- unappropriated millions on sole- monwealth of the Northern Mariana source contracts.
