  • This study empirically investigates the impact of informatization on China's inbound tourism development. The analysis utilizes data on the number of inbound tourist arrivals in 30 Chinese provinces from 13 tourist origin countries between 2004 and 2016. The regional informatization level is measured by the internet penetration rate. It is found that informatization in tourist destination provinces has a significant positive impact on inbound tourism. Moreover, the local public service supply plays a moderating role. The positive effect of informatization is stronger in regions with better public services. The study results imply that China can boost its inbound tourism by further improving the level of informatization as well as local public services.

  • According to the definition of 'native local food', Jeju has combined its regional specialty products with its own cooking method. It has almost four-hundred kinds, which reflects regional specialty and diversity, yet it is not very well-known. Thus, this present study provides basic research information through the investigation of tourist awareness, intention to consume, drawbacks, development necessity and direction of development of Jeju local foods. The survey was conducted with 295 domestic tourists who had visited Jeju in the last 10 years. In response to a question asked about the consciousness of Jeju local foods, 67.8% of respondents chose average, indicating a relatively high cause for concern. Intention to consume averaged 3.26, which was higher than tourist awareness, having an average of 2.60. Furthermore, local food interest and demographic characteristics of respondents were found to have an influence on tourist awareness and intention to consume. 87.8% of respondents answered above average with respect to the drawbacks of Jeju's local foods and development necessity and direction, with the main drawbacks being lack of PR (43.1%) and high price (39.0%). The priority of most respondents was the quality and taste of the food (50.8%). Based on the results of this study, if tourist awareness can be effectively increased, an escalation in intent to consume will follow, naturally promoting the consumption of Jeju's local foods. Consequentially, for tourism commercialization, the quality and taste of the foods have to be improved in addition to the gain in popularity through efficient PR methods.
