“…As early as the late 1980s, some hotels in Europe realized the role of hotels in environmental protection, gradually carried out environmental management, established their environmental standards, and achieved remarkable results [ 25 , 26 ]. In Britain in 2009, there was a study on measuring the carbon emissions generated when individuals or groups directly or indirectly consume certain products or services by using the life cycle assessment (LCA) [ 27 ].…”

At present, COVID-19 is seriously affecting the economic development of the hotel industry, and at the same time, the world is vigorously calling for “carbon emission mitigation”. Under these two factors, tourist hotels are in urgent need of effective tools to balance economic and social contributions with ecological and environmental impacts. Therefore, this paper takes Chinese tourist hotels as the research object and constructs a research framework for Chinese tourist hotels by constructing a Super-SBM Non-Oriented model. We measured the economic efficiency and eco-efficiency of Chinese tourist hotels from 2000 to 2019; explored spatial-temporal evolution patterns of their income, carbon emissions, eco-efficiency, and economic efficiency through spatial hotspot analysis and center of gravity analysis; and identified the spatial agglomeration characteristics of such hotels through the econometric panel Tobit model to identify the different driving factors inside and outside the tourist hotel system. The following results were obtained: (1) the eco-efficiency of China’s tourist hotels is higher than the economic efficiency, which is in line with the overall Kuznets curve theory, but the income and carbon emissions have not yet been decoupled; (2) most of China’s tourist hotels are crudely developed with much room for improving the economic efficiency, and most of the provincial and regional tourist hotels are at a low-income level, but the carbon emissions are still on the increase; and (3) income, labor, carbon emissions, waste emissions, and water consumption are the internal drivers of China’s tourist hotels, while industrial structure, urbanization rate, energy efficiency, and information technology are the external drivers of China’s tourist hotels. The research results provide a clear path for the reduction in carbon emissions and the improvement of the eco-efficiency of Chinese tourist hotels. Under the backdrop of global climate change and the post-COVID-19 era, the research framework and conclusions provide references for countries with new economies similar to China and countries that need to quickly restore the hotel industry.

“…Ianya berfungsi kepada kecenderungan atau kesanggupan serta rintangan yang dihadapi bagi mengadakan perjalanan. Di sini kesanggupan dan kemampuan seseorang individu dipengaruhi oleh kehendaknya sendiri iaitu motivasi (Seo et al 2019;Al Adwan 2020;Zhang & Walsh 2021;Iványi & Bíró-Szigeti 2021), kedudukan sosio-ekonomi (Yeh & Liu 2019;Promsivapallop & Kannaovakun 2020;Gavurova et al 2020;Švec et al 2021;An & Alarcón 2021), keberkesanan pemasaran dan promosi (Chrząścik 2019;Castañeda et al 2020;Korbiel 2021;Tinakhat 2021;Yim et al 2021) yang dilakukan. Pemasaran dan promosi penting terutama bagi meningkatkan permintaan jangka panjang di samping memberi pendedahan kepada masyarakat umum.…”

This study aims to identify the factors that determine the demand for tourism in Malaysia. Specifically, the study estimates the magnitude of the trade impact on tourism based on the Marco-Polo hypothesis that travelling is motivated by trade. This study uses data of 2007-2019 .from 5 Malaysia's major trading partners namely China, Japan, Singapore, Taiwan and United States. We use Pooled OLS, Random Effect and Fixed Effect estimation models. The study found that there is a positive relationship between tourist arrivals and international trade. The findings validate the Marco-Polo hypothesis in several sample countries. The findings suggest that in encouraging international tourists, international trade needs to be increased. The international trade policy need to be reviewed in order to increase the international tourists.

“…Additionally, the tourism industry and especially nature-based tourism agencies, are increasingly impelled by tourist expectations to shift their operations to more sustainable ('green') activities to remain commercially competitive. 11 Water saving interventions can (and should) be applied across a swathe of components of the tourist industry because it relies on water for a variety of uses (e.g. accommodation, landscaping, activities).…”
