Description:
- The China tourism boom is fizzling, with China visitor arrivals easing across most Asean countries in late 2018, said Maybank Kim Eng economists in a Jan 14 report. With slowing growth, a weaker yuan and waning consumer confidence, the current tourist slowdown may persist for most of 2019, they added. Nonetheless, the long-term outlook for Asean tourism is bright, with China's low passport penetration leaving much room for growth; airport capacity ramping up in both China and the region; and Asean also diversifying in other tourist markets.
