Restrictive factors of tourism poverty alleviation

Seven ministries and commissions, including the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Finance, the National Tourism Administration and the the State Council Poverty Alleviation Office, jointly issued the Notice on Implementing Rural Tourism to Enrich the People and Promote Tourism Poverty Alleviation. It is clear that about 2,000 poor villages will be supported to develop rural tourism by 2065, and more than 6,000 poor villages will be supported to develop rural tourism from 438+05 to 2020.

However, the reporter found in Hubei, Fujian, Hunan, Guizhou and other places that the deepening of tourism poverty alleviation still faces multiple constraints.

First, the investment in infrastructure construction is large and the cost of developing tourism is high. The reporter's investigation found that most of the poor people are concentrated in remote mountainous areas, with rugged terrain and relatively poor accessibility; At the same time, due to the high cost of infrastructure in mountainous areas, the low density, low grade and poor road conditions of railways and highways in the region, it needs high cost to meet the requirements of modern tourism comfort and safety.

"The rural tourism investment is large, the income is slow, and the financing support is obviously insufficient." Zhuang Qingbin, chairman of Wanbohua Company, which invested in the development of tourism in Fujian, said that at present, bank loans need collateral, and many infrastructures in scenic spots cannot be mortgaged, which leads to the company's cash flow being stretched.

Second, the homogenization of tourism products and regional tourism industry is serious. Reporters in Hubei, Fujian and other places found that the development of tourism products in some places mainly stays in the design and combination of traditional tourism products, and the development of new tourism products is obviously insufficient, especially the cultural connotation of tourism resources is not excavated enough, and there is a lack of high-grade, large-scale and distinctive comprehensive tourism products. Due to the lack of understanding of resource characteristics and development direction, the homogenization of tourism products and regional tourism industry in some places is serious, which is highlighted by the fact that tourism products in various places are mainly sightseeing and rural tourism lacks characteristics.

Third, there is a lack of systematic planning for tourism poverty alleviation, and some areas have not really benefited the people. At present, tourism poverty alleviation projects in many places show a "decentralized" development trend. Although many poor villages have their own development ideas, they lack overall planning. If villages can form an overall layout of "dislocation development", regional tourism can be gradually strengthened.

The reporter learned in Fujian and other places that in a few villages, local people who are interested in participating in tourism development are at a competitive disadvantage because foreign investors have their own financial advantages and market competitive advantages. Due to the insufficient participation of local residents in poverty alleviation through tourism, the preferential measures introduced by the government to encourage foreign investment will inadvertently harm the interests of the local poor. At the same time, because some employees in the scenic spot come from outside the scenic spot, tourism poverty alleviation in some places has not really benefited the people.

Beware of making bonsai and shouting.

Tourism poverty alleviation is in the ascendant. Experts pointed out that attention should be paid to correcting some tendencies in some places, such as making bonsai, making loud noises and blindly pursuing "height".

First of all, we should avoid building bonsai and building big houses, so as not to affect the effectiveness of poverty alleviation through tourism. He Xuefeng, director of China Rural Governance Research Center of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, said that in practice, some local governments often care about the poor and love the rich when using top-down agricultural resources. In the process of poverty alleviation through tourism, we must avoid creating "star villages and towns".

Secondly, we should avoid shouting and properly handle the relationship between the increase of farmers' income and the promotion of fiscal revenue. He Xuefeng believes that the great leap forward of rural tourism and leisure industry should be avoided in tourism poverty alleviation, and it is difficult to attract tourists by blindly investing in high homogeneity.

Li Xinjian, director of the Tourism Economic Research Center in China, beijing international studies university, pointed out that the first consideration of tourism poverty alleviation should not be the growth of fiscal revenue in poor areas, but the growth of income of every farmer or family. The poverty alleviation model to be adopted to promote the growth of farmers' income and fiscal revenue may be completely different. Only after in-depth and meticulous combing, each subsequent development plan will really help promote the development of poverty-stricken areas.

Third, avoid blindly pursuing "being tall" and establish a sustainable poverty alleviation mechanism. Li Xinjian said that there is no fixed successful model for poverty alleviation through tourism, because different regions have unique geographical and demand differences, so this should be fully considered when doing poverty alleviation through tourism. It is necessary to effectively deepen poverty alleviation through poverty alleviation through planning, training, information and comprehensive poverty alleviation. When planning poverty alleviation, we should avoid covering all aspects, take into account the characteristics of the village itself, avoid "being above others" and pay attention to accuracy and application. Planning poverty alleviation can make the tourism development of poor villages have directions and measures, but some problems can not be solved overnight, and a sustainable poverty alleviation mechanism needs to be established. For example, in tourism poverty alleviation, local people are provided with service skills and management skills training suitable for tourism development.
