  • Globally, the Travel, Tourism and Hospitality Industry Is One of The
    Globally, the travel, tourism and hospitality industry is one of the largest service industries in terms of revenue generation and foreign exchange earnings, contributing over 9% to global GDP. It is also one of the largest employment generators in the world. An estimated 235 million people work directly or in related sectors, accounting for more than 8% of global employment. The industry had witnessed a slowdown in 2009 on account of the global financial meltdown. Low business and consumer confidence along with other concerns such as availability of credit, exchange rate fluctuation, H1N1 virus, terrorist attacks, etc aggravated the situation. Nevertheless, the industry witnessed a revival in the last quarter of 2009, largely led by recovery in Asia and the Middle East. India is one of the fastest growing tourism markets in the world today. Various policy measures undertaken by the Government have aided the Indian travel, tourism and hospitality industry¶s growth. Concerted efforts by both the private and public sectors will enable us position India as a global brand to take advantage of the burgeoning global travel trade and the vast untapped potential of India as a major tourist destination. Some of trends covered in this publication include: y India¶s travel and tourism industry directly and indirectly is expected to account for around 8.6% of the country¶s GDP in 2010. The direct contribution of the travel and tourism industry is expected to be around 3.1% of total GDP. y Foreign tourist arrivals in the country in 2009 were adversely impacted by the global economic slowdown and threat of terror attacks.

  • Research Setting
    S.K. Acharya, G.C. Mishra and Karma P. Kaleon Chapter–6 Research Setting Anshuman Jena, S K Acharya, G.C. Mishra and Lalu Das In any social science research, it is hardly possible to conceptualize and perceive the data and interpret the data more accurately until and unless a clear understanding of the characteristics in the area and attitude or behavior of people is at commend of the interpreter who intends to unveil an understanding of the implications and behavioral complexes of the individuals who live in the area under reference and from a representative part of the larger community. The socio demographic background of the local people in a rural setting has been critically administered in this chapter. A research setting is a surrounding in which inputs and elements of research are contextually imbibed, interactive and mutually contributive to the system performance. Research setting is immensely important in the sense because it is characterizing and influencing the interplays of different factors and components. Thus, a study on Perception of Farmer about the issues of Persuasive certainly demands a local unique with natural set up, demography, crop ecology, institutional set up and other socio cultural Social Ecology, Climate Change and, The Coastal Ecosystem ISBN: 978-93-85822-01-8 149 Anshuman Jena, S K Acharya, G.C.

  • Experience Brief for Chilika Lake Orissa, India
    22 October 2003 Experience Brief for Chilika Lake Orissa, India Asish Ghosh Center for Environment and Development 1.0 Introduction The Lake Chilika, Asia’s biggest salt water lake in the eastern coast of India has a long history spanning over more than five thousand years. It has inspired the philosophers, poets and naturalists for its picturesque beauty of vast water spread area with a panoramic view of hills as a part of the Eastern Ghats in its background. The Lake once a part of Bay of Bengal provided excellent port facilities in the past. Commercial boats used to sail off from the lake to distant lands of Cambodia and Indonesia. To this day the villagers around Chilika Lake observes an annual festival called “Bali Yatra” (Journey to Bali in Indonesia). A place called Manikpatna is considered the site of this ancient port. The Chilika Lake is well known to the bird lovers for winter bird congregation migrating from distant lands; more than 100 of 211 species recorded from Chilika are intercontinental migrants flying of from Caspian Sea, Lake Baikal, Aral Sea and other remote parts of Russia, Kirghiz steppes of Mongolia, Central and Southeast Asia. The Lake Chilika attracts thousands of visitors for its serene beauty and rich natural landscape dotted with such islands named Beacon island, Breakfast island, Honeymoon island, Birds island (all christened during colonial era) and Somolo, Dumkudi, Parikud, Barunkuda (bearing the traditional Oriya name in local language). The local community have also deep religious attachments with Kalijai temple situated in yet another island; goddess Kalijai is venerated due to the folklore and legend.
