The Moment

Kazakhstan has the rich potential for tourism due to its rich culture, geographical and biological diversity, history, rugged mountains, gorgeous lakes, rivers, deserts, and has a lot of attractions and sites that satisfy the needs of domestic tourists as well as international tourists. However, the country has not yet achieved its incredible tourism potential, while tourism development in Kazakhstan began since 1990s. Therefore, the aim of this article is to examine the genesis and formation of the tourism industry in Kazakhstan and it considers how the situation in the tourism industry has regressed or progressed historically since independence. In addition, the article indicates what changes have taken place in the tourism industry in Kazakhstan over the past decade, as well as how the tourism industry has been influenced by government policy and incentive mechanisms. A systematic literature review is carried out that analyses published studies, evaluates contributions and summarises knowledge. The data for this article was collected from the National Committee on Statistics, Kazakhstan Tourism Association, National Committee on Tourism Industry as well as the official information portal of the Republic of Kazakhstan on tourism. National regulations, programs, international and national reports have been used as a theoretical and methodological base for analysis and review. The formation of tourism industry from the moment of gaining state independence is divided into three period stages including 1990s, 2000s and 2010s. The article outlines the main problems that hinder the development of the tourism industry in Kazakhstan, and on this basis, some policy recommendations are proposed. The tourism sector has to adopt a principal part in conserving and improving the situation in order to safeguard tourism’s largest commodity, and assure the on-going success of the industry. Communities and tour operators must form a powerful association and acknowledge each other’s crucial involvement. To attain the required objectives, strong collaboration among the national, provincial, and local governments, private sectors, and other concerned organizations is compulsory.

This article discusses the prospects for the development of sustainable tourism as an element of the network system in Okinsky District, Republic of Buryatia, RF. Before COVID-19-related restrictions, the number of tourists in this area increased annually, which was associated with the attractiveness of this terrain for visitors. The potential of the tourism sector of Okinsky District comes from the combination of a large number of natural resources. The area has rich water resources, including rivers, lakes, waterfalls, and mineral springs, with well-preserved mountainous landscapes accompanied by a centuries-old cultural and ethnic heritage. Due to Okinsky District’s specific border location and remoteness, the area has a very large number of places for recreation. The objective of our work is to clarify key factors hindering the development of tourism in the district. The study is aimed at examining the state of natural objects and determining their importance for locals, vacationers, and the district as a whole. In this regard, a problem integrity scope and a networked approach to the accompanying analysis reveal the mechanisms that contribute to the conservation of biological diversity of natural objects and their rational, scientifically grounded use in the tourism industry in accordance with the principles of sustainable development. The set of problems that impede the active promotion of tourism were identified. However, these problems are typical not only for the studied district but also many other remote areas of the Russian Federation.

The Impact

The article examines the impact of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) pandemic on the tourism and hospitality industry. Based on an assessment of the scale of losses incurred by enterprises in this sector of the economy in an unfavorable epidemiological situation, it was concluded that tourism was among the industries most affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The identified problems faced by small and medium-sized businesses from among tour operators and travel agencies confirmed the correctness of the measures of state support provided by the state to this sector of the economy. A comparative analysis of the development of the tourism sector in 2019 and 2020 in terms of such parameters as the number of inbound and outbound trips of citizens, the volume of demand for tourism services, made it possible to assess the threats and opportunities for the functioning of the tourism sector during the pandemic for the Russian economy and suggest that the recovery of the tourism industry it may take at least three years. There have been illustrated the diagrams comparing the demand for outbound and inbound tourism in 2019 and 2020, the demand for tourist services among different strata of the population, and hotel occupancy in Russia. In addition to identifying general factors that hinder the balanced growth of the Russian market of tourist services, the problem of information asymmetry was stated, which hinders the realization of the tourist potential in the regions: lack/ insufficient data, or distorted data on the tourism potential in certain territories. The highlighted trends in the development of the Russian tourism industry in the current conditions and promising trends in the tourism and hospitality industry include greening, digitalization, individualization of both demand and supply, an orientation towards domestic tourism.

Tourism Governance

The coastal / maritime tourism is an important segment in a multi-trillion dollars and multivariate global tourism industry. It offers one of the new avenues and fastest growing areas for significant role in global economies. Various countries such as Maldives, Indian State of Kerala, Singapore and Thailand etc. have focused on maritime tourism with good governance practices evolved over period of time to earn substantial revenues from it. Pakistan has also immense maritime tourism potential with diversified natural, religious, and cultural tourism resources. But Pakistan’s maritime tourism is considered very weak due to various issues. With qualitative research, this paper attempts to explore and suggest solutions for the development of maritime tourism sector of Pakistan by analysing the tourism governance of global success stories and evaluating the nationwide potential and challenges. Arguments are developed that the factors behind the success stories of Maldives & Kerala state in India can act as guidance for taking initiatives on the proposed potential sites in order to uplift the maritime tourism sector in Pakistan. It is anticipated that the effective implementation of this paper’s recommendations would be instrumental in gearing up Pakistan’s Maritime economy.
