What are the three major development areas identified by Singapore's tourism sector?

First of all, tourism products are updated. At present, the tourism industry in Southeast Asian countries such as Thailand and Indonesia is developing rapidly. In order to stand out in the new round of tourism competition, we must make more efforts in the field of tourism market segmentation, innovate tourism products and services and enhance the characteristics of domestic tourism products. Tourism Singapore will inject capital into professional fields full of development potential, such as cruise industry. The emerging tourism field with broad development space represented by the cruise industry will become the focus. In 20 12, Singapore National Tourism Administration invested S $ 120,000 (about 57.55 million RMB) to set up a cruise development fund, and Singapore's cruise industry achieved remarkable development: from 20 14 to 20 15, the passenger throughput of Singapore's cruise ships increased rapidly, reaching one million passengers. In addition, the huge spillover effect of cruise tourism will also benefit the ground service, fuel supply, ship maintenance and other industries. Tourism Singapore is trying to launch a "cruise package" service with cruise operators, travel agencies and event organizers.

Secondly, the application and innovation of science and technology. The application of big data, predictive analysis and other scientific and technological means will help tourism practitioners to understand the needs and consumption trends of tourists, so as to improve or launch new tourism products. In addition to using data analysis to understand industry trends and tourists' consumption habits, hotels in Singapore have also begun to use robots to clean and transport heavy objects.

The third development focus is the manpower training of tourism. Singapore is an island country, with a small land and few people, and is short of resources. In the case of insufficient natural resources, it has found a new way to actively develop tourism and become one of the most developed countries in the world. Its successful experience in tourism development and management has become a model for many cities at home and abroad to learn.
