Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/jthm.v7n2a13 URL: https://doi.org/10.15640/jthm.v7n2a13 Residents' Perceptions of Tourism Impacts in Miaoli, Taiwan Hsiang- Yung Feng1 Abstract Under the rush of global tourism and the "Taiwan Romantic Route 3" national plan, it hopes to promote the economy of traditional Hakka village with a "cultural value-added" and tourism development strategy. This study attempts to examine the relationships between local residents' perceptions of tourism impacts and attitudes of tourism development. It adopts the method of quantitative measurement by using questionnaires and interviews 372 residents. Findings from this study reveal that residents of different backgrounds have some significant differences in their perceptions of tourism impacts and tourism development attitudes, older people have greater perceptions of the socio-cultural impact of tourism development, while younger people have greater perceptions of economic and environmental impacts. These results reinforce some of the past findings of tourism impacts and local tourism development relationship literatures. Therefore, to ensure the positive correlation between perceptions of tourism impacts and attitudes of tourism development. Despite these research findings, author emphasizes the importance of thinking of local residents before developing local tourism. Keywords: Tourism Impacts, Tourism Planning, Resident Perceptions, Taiwan Romantic Route 3 1. Introduction With continued economic growth and globalization, people are more willing to travel and experience different cultures and lifestyles, which also leads to continued growth in the tourism industry.

  • WALIS Nokan Sample IWP 2019
    WALIS Nokan_sample IWP 2019 Walis Nokan Mini Album of Microfictions On the Recollection of Two Dreams There are times in a person’s life when things don’t turn out as expected and as for Irish novelist Lord Dunsany, he too was no exception. In thinking back on the scene in the trenches of the first world war, Lord Dunsany recalled: “At six feet four inches (about 193 centimeters), my height was rather precarious. You see, in 1917, war trenches were dug to a depth of six feet (about 183 centimeters); so, I was in a spot of bother, going about my days with my bonce bobbing above the trench line.” It’s a good thing bullets don’t have eyes, otherwise one would surely have lodged itself in that head of his sticking out like a giraffe’s. In 1983 (66 years after Lord Dunsany’s head exposure during WWI trench warfare), I had my own run-in with things not turning out as expected. While cruising down Taiwan’s eastern seaboard I was involved in a life-threatening accident, but the hand-of-God shed a tear of compassion and I too slipped free of the reaper’s grasp. Thinking back on these two run-ins with fate, similar in the dream-like circumstance of their plots, I shed tears of empathy, though I stand in the face of them like hard cold marble. Stung I looked up and invited a bee to fly down and join me. He was a cultured worker-bee who sported a tightly knotted bowtie.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The six mite species of the genus Euseius Wainstein from Taiwan are reviewed, including E. ovalis (Evans), E. daluensis sp. nov., E. macaranga sp. nov., E. paraovalis sp. nov., and two species recorded for the first time in Taiwan, E. aizawai (Ehara & Bhandhufalck) and E. circellatus (Wu & Li). Measurements of these species and an identification key for adult females of the six Euseius species from Taiwan are provided. Key words: Phytoseiidae, taxonomy, Taiwan, new species, new record Introduction Euseius Wainstein is a genus of phytoseiid mites mainly distributed in tropical and subtropical areas (Chant & McMurtry, 2005, 2007). Among the 193 known species (Demite et al., 2016), only E. ovalis has been recorded in Taiwan (Tseng, 1983; Liao et al., 2013). As generalist predators, Euseius mites are considered potential biocontrol agents (McMurtry et al., 2013), although some species have been observed to feed on plant leaves without causing substantial damage (Adar et al., 2012). In Taiwan, E. ovalis has been studied for future use as a biological control agent, especially regarding its response to different food resources and its predator-prey interactions (Shih et al., 1993; Shih & Wang, 1997).
