Rethinking the Meaning of “Hospitality” in Tourism-Based Community Development

2021

This paper poses the question of whether or not "hospitality management" employed for Tourism-Based Community Development (TBCD) is appropriate. In business terminology, the two terms "hospitality" and "service" have been interchangeably used in Japanese society since the 1990s. However, the original meaning of "hospitality" indicates

A Study on Planning Idea of Tsuyoshi Tamura and Keiji Uehara based on Mt. Kongo National Park Plan

Journal of The Japanese Institute of Landscape Architecture, 2016

There was a dispute over the concept of national parks between Tsuyoshi Tamura and Keiji Uehara during the 1920's, and each made his own "Mt. Kongo National Park Plan" later in 1930. In this study, planning Idea of national parks by Tsuyoshi Tamura is discussed after identifying similarities and differences of the two through the analysis process of "Mt. Kongo National Park Plan". As a result, the following points have been clarified. Uehara's concept and resources of national parks change over time. During the 1920's, Uehara considered national parks as a conservation district for natural treasures and excluded landscape to consider as their resource; however, he regarded landscape as a main resource in 1930. On the other hand, Tamura's establishment of a park area was based on conditions such as a visible area of landscape and land ownership (prioritized forests owned by the nation and temples, and avoided private property), and to secure a vast size of the unity area. Lastly, Uehara prioritized history and culture as resources of a national park; whereas Tamura prioritized natural landscape and did not value traditional landscape.

A study on the relationships between willingness to pay for environmental protection and tourist satisfaction

Journal of The Japanese Institute of Landscape Architecture, 2016

The study aims to identify the relationship between willingness to pay for environmental protection and tourist satisfaction. The Republic of Palau is selected as a case study, where the national government collects the environmental protection fee of US$30 from all the tourists and the state governments collect the entrance fee of US$10~100 from the tourists who enter protected areas. A questionnaire survey was conducted on Japanese tourists. The study identified that more than 90% of the tourists had affirmative opinions on the payment and wanted to revisit even if they pay around US$50~150. However, more than half of the tourists couldn't satisfy their payments, as they couldn't realize their contribution to the environmental protection and/or local society. The satisfaction level of the tourists who leaned the payment system by themselves through magazines or websites was higher than those of the others who were instructed by tour guides or who were not informed by anybody. These results indicate that if the governments improve the transparency of their use of money and notify the tourists of positive effects on local society and/or environmental protection, more tourists could realize their contribution and recognize their responsibility as beneficiaries.

Current Management Status and Space Use Chaeacteristics of Day Service Centers That Can Support Chinese Language Service in Japan

Journal of architecture,planning and environmental engineering, 2022

This study aims to clarify nationwide management status and space use characteristics of day-service-centers that can support Chinese language service in Japan. It found that most of day-service-centers were established after 2010 and daily capacity is 11~20 users. JPC (Japanese people from China) users are more than CPJ (Chinese people in Japan) users. Differences of language and life habit are the most important problems in taking care service for JPC/ CPJ users. Meanwhile, their recreation behaviors are very different from the Japanese users, so when setup dayservice-centers for JPC/CPJ, their background, life habit and behavior characteristics should be considered.
