The Relationship

Many scientists work on the research of various aspects of the rural tourism functioning, but despite this, in the scientific field still remains the problem of uncertainty and ambiguous interpretation of the definitions in rural tourism, which is primarily due to the multidimensional nature of this type of activity and the lack of understanding of its essence. Therefore, the objective of this article is to study and generalize the terms and concepts that occur in the conceptual field of rural tourism. Different approaches are applied to determining the essence of rural tourism not only in Ukraine but also abroad. The most common of them is the definition of rural tourism as one being implemented within rural areas. But, in our opinion, this approach is controversial and cannot claim to be the most objective, as in the practices of dif ferent countries there is diversity not only in the types and forms of rural tourism, but also in relation to the territorial size of rural administrative units, their definition by population etc. And the peculiarity of rural tourism is not only in its implementation in the countryside, but also in the specifics of tourist services that are provided. The article analyzes the definition of the “rural tourism” concept proposed by different authors, specifies the use of the terms “rural tourism” and “rural green tourism” in the scientific field, describes the foreign approaches to the definition of rural tourism. The relationship between the concepts of “rural tourism”, “agro-tourism” and “ecotourism”, which is often debatable, is also defined. It can be argued that rural, agro- and ecotourism have different contents and imply different goals of activity. But in the field of science there is a commonplace approach to understand rural tourism as a kind of synthesis of three varieties - eco-tourism (green), agro-tourism (farmer) and rural tourism. At the same time, the concept of “rural tourism” in its contents is much broader than the concept of “agro-tourism”, which acts as one of its most common organizational forms, and to a certain level correlates with the notion of “ecological tourism”, although they are not identical. The article proposes a generalization of the essence, specific features and functions of rural tourism, based on modern research in this direction and the asser tion that the main service of rural tourism is not just providing tourists with temporary residence in the country farmstead, but provision of a comprehensive service for tourists, as well as taking into account its role as an instrument for ensuring sustainable socio-economic development of rural areas

Introduction. The sector of tourism and renovation is one of the trendiest directions of social and economic development of rural areas. It is generally maintained, that green tourism increases the motivation of the rural nontraditional territorial communities in the development of social infrastructure and the creation of new workplaces. For this, tourism could promote the application of new unconventional forms of entrepreneurial activity. It opens new potential possibilities, such as assists the filling of local budgets, effective use of resources, increase a profit of the population, development of social infrastructure, the origin of alternative forms of employment and entrepreneurial activity, increase the prestige of rural. Purpose. The purpose of the article is the research of terms and processes of development of green tourism, and to his influence on a regional tourist market, especially in a part of local economic development of territorial communities. Results. Cultural and natural resources are an extremely main part of world tourism. Furthermore, this is a significant type of support. The analysis of the terms allows us to set that unfortunately, the attempt at the legislative level to give legal determination by a concept «green tourism», «ecological tourism» or «rural tourism» remained not executed. Besides, the world's society uses the name of «geotourism». It is believed, that tourism could support or improve the geographical character of the environment. Moreover, it is based on principles, for instance, ecological responsibility (maintenance of resources and bio variety), cultural responsibility (devotion and respect are to local originality and inheritance), and synergy (association of all elements of geographical features for creation of tourist experience, what richer, than the sum of his parts, and attractive for visitors with different interests). Ukraine has great possibilities for the development of rural green tourism, in particular, as well as the Mykolaiv region. Conclusions. Taking everything into account, green tourism could provide local economic development of territorial communities. Firstly, the government must improve the laws for the green tourism sphere. Also, we need to set forth the main principles of politics there. Secondly, society should pay attention to the development of green tourism, especially for local farms or personal peasant farms. Because of them have possibilities and prospects for its development. Thirdly, society should use the innovations, which could increase the amount of tourist service. In practice, it could be gastronomy, traditional rural tourism, air therapy, in civilized mannerethnographic measures, and so on. Apart from this, local inhabitants could create the thematic villages as a regional brand. There are some examples of this - production of the special product, which is typical for local territory, or organization of unique festivals, and even production of hand-made souvenirs. Finally, local rural inhabitants should implement the unconventional ideas of evolution of the rural communities.

Divine Guidance

Reversion to Islam while opening golden opportunities for a revert in terms of divine guidance and spiritual salvation is coming with somewhat insurmountable challenges in terms of Islamization of the self, family and contributions to the overall development of Malaysia as a multi-religious country. This is especially so when Islam as an official religion has made the issue of Islamization of the Malaysian society and its systems amongst the pivotal national agendas in the country.  As to what is the role of Chinese Muslims (reverts) in the process, studies, among others, have purported to present the statistics about their share in socio-economic development. Similarly, empirical studies point to the odds faced by this community at personal, family and community levels in their path for transition to the full Islamic way of life. To the presenters of this paper, however, the macro dimension of what it means to become a Muslim which is essential for adjustment to the Islamic requirements has not been sufficiently highlighted in discourses in the area. Accordingly, this paper presents the position statements on Islamic expectations from Chinese reverts with the purpose of motivating them to achieve greater things in the area of Islamization of their community and the nation to the effect. Keywords: Chinese converts, Islamization, expectations and challenges. Abstrak kembalinya seseorang kepada agama Islam selain dari membuka peluang keemasan dalam mendapat  petunjuk Ilahi dan pengisian rohani turut disertai dengan cabaran yang amat sukar untuk diatasi termasuklah cabaran Islamisasi diri, keluarga serta sumbangan kepada pembangunan keseluruhan Malaysia sebagai negara berbilang agama. Hal ini menjadi satu keutamaan terutamanya apabila Islam memegang status sebagai agama rasmi persekutuan yang menjadikan isu Islamisasi masyarakat Malaysia sebagai satu agenda nasional. Bagi menjayakan agenda ini, peranan umat Islam dari kalangan masyarakat Cina (cina muslim) juga perlu diambil kira. Statistik menunjukkan cina muslim turut mempunyai bahagian dalam menyumbang terhadap pembangunan sosio-ekonomi negara. Dalam pada masa yang sama, kajian empirikal membuktikan adanya bentuk bentuk cabaran yang dihadapi oleh komuniti ini di peringkat peribadi, keluarga dan komuniti dalam perjalanan mereka untuk kembali kepada cara hidup Islam yang sepenuhnya. Bagi kami pengkaji kertas ini, dimensi makro dalam menjadikan dan mengertikan  seseorang itu Muslim terutamanya dalam menyesuaikan diri dengan ajaran  Islam masih belum cukup diberi  penjelasan dan penerangan yang sewajarnya. Oleh itu, makalah ini cuba menerangkan idea dan cadangan yang berguna kepada cina muslim dengan tujuan memotivasikan  mereka bagi  mencapai kejayaan  yang lebih besar dari aspek Islamisasi di kalangan komuniti mereka seterusnya memberi sumbangan kepada negara. Kata kunci:  Cina Muslim, Islamisasi, harapan dan cabaran.

Typologization of rural areas, taking into account differences in population density and level of socio-economic development, is necessary to identify “growth points” and strategic sustainability benchmarks. The method of integrated assessment of the level of socio-economic development of rural territories is proposed, according to which the grouping of Russian regions is carried out. Applying data on rural population density to the results of calculations allowed us to identify 12 typological groups, in the context of which unified recommendations on sustainable development of territories should be formed.

The Creation

Important issues in the development of regional tourism are the provision of tourist services, formation of the market of services and infrastructure improvement. The creation of clusters in the tourism sector remains relevant. From the standpoint of geographical science, the formation of tourist clusters is quite studied. The tourist potential of Khmelnytskyi region first of all includes the objects of nature reserve and historical-cultural funds available in the regional territory, which have not been involved in tourist activity yet. They are the basis for the formation of new tourist attractions, which can be used for the development of rural tourism, job creation, finding sources of income for newly formed territorial communities in order to obtain a positive effect from their formation. It is established that the synergetic effect promotes the creation of clusters with similar specialization. Determining the prospects of the tourist cluster of Khmelnytskyi region, special attention should be paid to such a form of tourism as rural (green) tourism. Extensive implementation of green tourism in the practice of newly formed united territorial communities in the region will provide additional resources to enhance their socio-economic development. Especially relevant tourist and recreational activities are in the buffer zones of national nature parks and landscape Regional Park, which are located in the Khmelnytskyi region. It is described that the material and technical base of tourism consists of: temporary accommodation facilities; specialized transport companies; tourist and excursion institutions and their subdivisions; information and advertising services; enterprises for the production and sale of tourist goods. Social infrastructure is also important for the organization of high-quality recreation for tourists: the availability of housing and communal services, cultural and household services, health care, and trade. From the standpoint of traditional economic and geographical complex formation, all factors of tourist complexes are divided into two major groups: socio-economic (labor, transport, trade and catering, souvenirs, city tourist development) and natural (geographical location, nature surface area, air temperature) etc. Many scholars, as the main social factors in the development of the tourist complex distinguish: socio-cultural: cultural-historical (architectural-historical) resources, settlement, administrative-territorial division; production and economic: labor resources, the structure of the city's economy, sources of environmental pollution, transport, land resources. Analysis of the location of these factors from the standpoint of social geography will justify measures aimed at enhancing the development of tourism in the regional tourism complex. Mass tourism is possible only if the needs of travelers in food and accommodation are met. Relevant facilities should have a range of hygiene and waste disposal facilities for tourists. Therefore, it is important, especially in rural areas, to provide in the plans of socio-economic development and general schemes of rural development places for temporary stay of tourists, appropriate infrastructure facilities, to reserve land for their arrangement. The analysis of the possibilities of Khmelnytskyi region in the tourist market of Ukraine showed that it occupies the middle places. This is due to the transit transport and geographical location. Within this region there is a clear polarization of tourism development, which determines the spatial features of the regional tourist complex development. Key words: tourist cluster, Khmelnytskyi region, green tourism, socio-economic development of the region.
