Well, Easter Island is in the South Pacific, 3,700 kilometres from the coast of Chile. On the island, there are 600 large statues. We don’t know who built them but they were probably constructed between 1150 and 1500. We don’t really know why they are there, The Easter Island. Norwegian explorer, Thor Heyerdahl, believed that they were built by people from South America. To prove this, he made a simple raft and sailed there, all the way from Peru. Archaeologists think that the statues represent dead tribal leaders. We don’t know why the statues left alone on the island.

    76 Papers of the Bibliographical Society of Canada 39hI between analytical bibliography and histoire du~livre, between the Old and New Worlds, and between the metropolis and the frontier. CARL SPADONI McMaster University Library The Challenge of Change: A Consideration of the Canadian Book Industry / Le de'fz du changernent: Étude de l'industrie canadienne du livre. Ottawa: Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage, zooo. Io9 pp.; $32.oo (paper). ISBN 0-660-61326-3. The mandate of the Standing Committee is to oversee issues and legislation pertaining to the Canadian Heritage portfolio. With respect to the book industry, the Committee's mandate is to monitor the link between the Government of Canada's support to the book industry and the provision of increased choice of Canadian-authored materials to Canadian readers. (4) The Challenge of Change is a timely investigation by the Standing Committee of new trends in wholesale distribution and ownership, namely, the arrival of the retail superstore and innovations in information technology, especially online publishing and bookselling. These key shifts are of recent origin, merely the latest of many transformations in the book industry throughout the last half-century. Among those changes were government funding to creators and publishers, the compilation of industry statistics, the arrival of major wholesalers and of multinational firms, a number of casualties among long-established Toronto publishing houses, the rise and near decline of regional literary presses, and the international popularity of Canadian writers. An exciting era, certainly, but many of the fundamental problems that have plagued publishing and bookselling for the last century have simply turned up in a new guise.

This type of transaction is typical in the market setting and great way for travellers to feel like a local. Tour guides are able to share tips and trick for finding good deals with visitors, like teaching them how to check prices of the same items in the neighbourhood before reaching a deal, especially for more expensive items. If you are being followed by street vendors and do not wish to make a purchase, often the best course of action is to say “no” firmly and politely and continue on your way. Do not hesitate or linger, as this will encourage the seller to try and engage you further. If you choose to ship items home, we highly recommend that you buy shipping insurance and check the policy details. As shops are not responsible for damages incurred en route, it’s better to be safe than sorry. Trails of Indochina and our guides cannot accept responsibility for any misrepresented or faulty goods.

  • How Does Tourism Affect the Sociocultural Aspects of the Local Community? - a Minor Field Study in Bali
    Södertörns University |Department of Science, Environment and Technology Bachelor’s Essay 15hp | Tourism Studies C | Spring Term 2018 Tourism Program Figure 1: Balinese dancer (Seruling 2017) How does tourism affect the sociocultural aspects of the local community? - A Minor Field Study in Bali Emma Holmlund Isabelle Donnerberg Supervisor: Gustaf Onn ​ Tourism Studies C: Bachelor’s Essay ​ ST-18 Abstract: The tourism industry is growing rapidly worldwide. In 2016, Bali, Indonesia, had a record year in tourism, and the industry is continuously growing. One can argue that tourism is a culture exploiter and disrupts traditional culture. Nevertheless, it can also revitalize culture. Since the tourism in Bali is based on the Balinese culture and traditions, the writers wanted to acquire a deeper understanding of how the locals look upon - does tourism affect their cultural traditions and can residents preserve their local culture? A qualitative method was used for this study. For the collecting of data the writers conducted semi-structured interviews. The result of the study was, according to the Balinese, that people in Bali have become more money oriented due to the development of tourism and that some ceremonies have lost their spiritual meaning. In addition, the writers found that the locals are ​ continuously working on preserving their culture but the challenge is to preserve what is actually authentic Balinese. Keywords: social exchange, social conflict, sociocultural, tourism, local community, ​ community based tourism, culture, traditions. 1 Preface: We would like to thank all the external reviewers who continuously helped us improve our study. We would also like to thank Mr. Basmantra from Undiknas University who has been our contact person in field and who helped us find respondents for the study.
