Book excerpt: We investigated small tourism-related businesses in Kinabalu National Park, Sabah, to identify their characteristics and constraints. Awarded World Heritage Site status in 2000, Kinabalu National Park provides a wealth of economic opportunities to adjacent rural communities. Quantitative data from a sample of 145 tourism-related small business entrepreneurs from these communities revealed that most of these entrepreneurs were female, middle-aged or older, and poorly educated. Most used their own savings to establish and maintain their businesses, sustaining operations and staffing levels throughout the year despite seasonal slumps in tourist numbers, marginal profits, and a lack of tourism-specific knowledge and skills. Respondents received virtually no financial support or training from government sources and there were few incentives for the local community to participate in tourism-related activities. Government and related organizations should aim to reduce such constraints on the operations of small businesses to ensure more sustainable tourism development in Kinabalu National Park.

Sustainable tourism brings societal prosperity, enhances the quality of life, improves the situation and ensures that resources are available. Yet there has been little focus on the ecotourism destination, especially on Lower Kinabatangan as a sustainable premier ecotourism destination from the perspectives of key tourism stakeholders – ecotourists, tour operators/ lodges and local communities. A unique sustainable ecotourism book that you cannot miss. This book presents a holistic and sound approach in sustainable ecotourism featuring significant aspects of ecotourism –ecotourism attributes, quality of ecotourism experiences, practices of responsible tourism, responsible guidelines and sustainable framework for the ecotourism destination. These are valuable knowledge to tourism academics and practitioners and has managerial implications and academic contributions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comprises of 13 chapters, documenting the scientific expedition of the Mantanani Island. This expedition was conducted by thirty scientists and researchers from Universiti Malaysia Sabah under the fellowship of the Small Islands Research Center (SIRC). The expedition was carried out from the 8th to the 10th of April 2016, yielded new knowledge and updated previous data on the socio-cultural aspects of the inhabitants, island geology, terrestrial and marine flora and fauna, economy and ecotourism. The layout of this book was designed to present the socio-cultural aspect of the inhabitants on the island in two preliminary chapters, followed by island geology; land use; coastline changes; diversity of trees; seaweed; invertebrates; snails; groundwater as well as economic and potential ecotourism prospects of the island in its final chapter. UMS, through its implementation arm, SIRC, is committed to ensure the success of preservation and conservation of the island’s resources for future generations. Therefore, this book aims to serve as a focal point for future scientific expedition to this island. As the environment changes around us due to anthropogenic activities, it is only prudent that we document these changes in order to better understand and mitigate future disasters.

This book was released on 2006-08-11 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a pioneering investigation of the tourism practices in the world's other, cold water, islands. Located in extreme latitudes and subject to extreme weather conditions, these islands have been developing their tourism appeal in manners that appear sustainable. They present themselves in images that speak to the pristine, unique and superlative aspects of their natural environment, history and culture. Limited seasonality, difficulty of access, restricted infrastructure, harsh climates and water too cold to swim in, are integral features of the tourism industry, often welcomed as appropriate filters to the slide to the mass market. The collection contains 13 island case studies. A set of seven hail from Northern latitudes: Baffin (Nunavut, Canada), Banks (Northwest Territories, Canada), Greenland/ Kaalaalit Nunaat, Iceland, Luleå (Sweden), Nunivak (Alaska), Solovetsky (Russia) and Svalbard (Norway). A second set of four cover the Southerly islands of Chatham (New Zealand), Falklands, Macquarie (Australia) and Stewart (New Zealand). Two other chapters discuss islands from the particular vantage points of cruise ship tourism, one for the Arctic region and one for the Antarctic. Additionally, five conceptual chapters provide insights into key tourism management issues, as they apply to cold water island experiences:(a) human resources; (b) environment; (c) promotion; (d) seasonality; and (e) access.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rural tourism provides opportunities for travellers to experience rural attractions and getting familiar with the culture and heritage. It is known to stimulate rural economy through job creation, farm support, nature conservation, rural supplies and services, landscape and nature conservation, rural arts and crafts, and enrichment of local heritage. The development will profit the local community through tourism products ranging from ecotourism to cultural tourism. With rich and melting pot of multicultural and biodiversity, Malaysia has great potential in rural tourism. Both Peninsular Malaysia and East Malaysia have the best ecotourism destinations in the region. Malaysia is blessed to have the UNESCO branded rural destinations such as Kinabalu Park, Gunung Mulu National Park and Archaeological Heritage of the Lenggong Valley. The rural tourism concept in Malaysia has been integrated with other tourism concepts such as sustainable tourism, indigenous tourism, ethnic tourism, agrotourism, ecotourism, farm tourism, cultural tourism and heritage tourism. This integrated concept has been explored in a few case studies involving archaeological, ecotourism, mangrove and highland tourism of rural destinations. These rural destinations offer great potentials in providing the ‘truly Malaysia’ experiences; however, it is yet to be fully capitalized. Managing rural tourism development is very challenging due to its limited resources and infrastructure; thus identification on how the destination is presented, managed and promoted are the major focus of this book. Therefore, these interesting case studies are hoped to enlighten the development of the selected rural tourism destinations in Malaysia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In comparison to large islands and mainland destinations, economic development has often proven to be difficult for small island destinations due to common characteristics that include smallness in size, lack of resources (physical and human), isolated location, high transportation and limited capacity to earn export income. ... This study has demonstrated that hosts and guests from different cultural groups behave differently with regard to perceptions, expectations and destination attributes. The study contributes to the literature related to tourism impacts and consumer behaviour in a cross-cultural context." -Abstract.
