How to promote the growth of tourist consumption

One is to have time. During the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, China will implement the paid vacation system for employees. The Regulations on Paid Annual Leave for Employees came into effect on June 5438+1 October1,2008, which was promulgated by the State Council Decree and has certain legal binding force. Now nine years have passed, and many units have failed to implement it well. The implementation of this regulation requires rigidity and cannot be "discretionary" by enterprises.

Second, there is money. Tourism is "playing with money" and needs economic and financial support to promote the great development of tourism. Conceptually speaking, tourism should first be positioned as mass consumption, not as a "patent" for a few people. This requires three points: first, enterprises should develop production, improve economic benefits, establish a normal wage growth mechanism, and let employees have money to travel. Secondly, tourism products are public "commodities", not "fine products", and tickets should not be too high. It is necessary not only to strictly control the price increase of scenic spots, but also to appropriately reduce the tickets for a few scenic spots with excessive prices. Third, tourism has certain public welfare attributes and educational functions. For special groups, such as young students, teachers, soldiers, the elderly, the disabled and so on. Scenic spots should give preferential tickets. For urban low-income people, the government should give certain travel subsidies so that most people can "afford it".

Third, we must serve well. In recent years, through strict management and rectification, the order of the tourism market has been clearly standardized, but tourism chaos such as "black tour guides" and arbitrary charges still occur from time to time, especially in the areas of catering, accommodation, parking and sanitation in scenic spots, and the overall complaint rate of the tourism industry is still high. These problems need to be solved urgently.
