报告称印度将在10年内成为第三大旅游经济体

NEW DELHI: India is expected to establish itself as the third largest travel and tourism economy by 2028 in terms of direct and total GDP, a 2018 economic impact report by World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) has said.

新德里：据世界旅游业理事会（WTTC）于2018年发布的经济影响报告称，印度预计到2028年按其直接和GDP的总量将成为全球第三大旅游经济体。

The WTTC report, released globally on Thursday, also said India will add nearly 10 million jobs in the tourism sector by 2028 and that the total number of jobs dependent directly or indirectly on the travel and tourism industry will increase from 42.9 million in 2018 to 52.3 million in 2028. Calling India the seventh largest travel and tourism economy in the world, Gloria Guevara, president and chief executive of WTTC, said India should be working on improving tourist infrastructure.

周四全球发布的世界旅游业理事会报告也表示，到2028年，印度旅游业将增加近1000万个就业机会，直接或间接依赖旅游业的就业总人数将从2018年的4290万增加到2028年的5230万。世界旅游业理事会总裁兼首席执行官格洛里亚•格瓦拉(Gloria Guevara)称，印度是世界第七大旅游经济体，印度应该致力于改善旅游基础设施。

In an exclusive email interview to TOI, Guevara said, “The biggest single area of improvement for travel and tourism in India is infrastructure. Tourism is a competitive business in a global context and India’s near neighbours to the east and west have built world-class tourism infrastructure in the form of airports, sea ports, high-speed rail and roads. WTTC has long welcomed the opportunity of the Regional Connectivity Scheme to open up 350 unserved and underserved airports and airstrips.”

在对印度时报的独家邮件采访中，格瓦拉表示，“印度旅游业要改善的最大领域是基础设施。在全球范围内，旅游业是一项具有竞争力的业务，而印度与东方和西方的近邻则以机场、海港、高速铁路和公路的形式建成了世界级的旅游基础设施。世界旅游业理事会长期以来一直期盼有区域间互联互通计划的机会，来开发350个未服务和服务尚不足的机场和机场跑道。

Guevara welcomed the government’s ambition to make the country a global cruise destination with the creation of the new cruise port in Mumbai. “There are some extremely proactive steps that have been introduced by the government to increase international visitors. We recognise the introduction of e-visa for 163 countries and the launch of Incredible India 2.0 campaign with major improvement in the marketing and PR strategy,” she said.

格瓦拉对政府的雄心壮志表示欢迎。政府希望通过在孟买建立新的邮轮港口，使该国成为全球邮轮旅游目的地。“政府已经采取了一些非常积极的措施来增加国际游客。我们为163个国家推出了电子签证，启动了令人难以置信的印度2.0运动，并在营销和公关战略方面取得重大进展。

The WTTC, however, red flagged the sector’s concerns over the three-level implementation of GST in the hospitality sector and said the government must bring in tax reforms to make India’s tourism sector more competitive with other countries in the region.

然而，世界旅游业理事会也表示，业内对酒店业实施三级增值税表示担忧，并表示政府必须实施税收改革，以使印度旅游业比该地区的其他国家更具竞争力。
