TOURISM
This section
presents tourism articles in a developmental and environmental
context, the bi-monthly bulletin New Frontiers that monitors
tourism development in Southeast Asia's Mekong region, as well
as tourism-related statements and action alerts. It focuses
on tourism issues affecting local communities and the natural
environment and highlights voices who usually have little opportunity
to influence policy-making structures.
