33 ASEAN Integration 5. Travel Facilitation and Connectivity
As a group, the ASEAN member countries are more open 10% of all tourists arriving in ASEAN in will need a visa Over the years , the period under analysis, more than 307 million international tourists (cumulatively) are forecast to visit destinations in the ASEAN member states, an average of about 102 million international tourists per year. Under the current status of visa policies in the region, it is forecast that 10.4% (32 million) of these tourists would be required to obtain a traditional visa. Much more open than global openness average (30) and APEC average (44) The Philippines currently ranks number 7 out of 220 countries on the openness scale. Cambodia one of the 3% of countries worldwide that offer its visitors an eVisa.

34 ASEAN Integration Travel Facilitation and Connectivity UNWTO, 2013

35 ASEAN Integration ASEAN International Tourism Receipts
Visa facilitation policies would bring between 6 and 10 million additional tourists by 2016. The additional tourists would generate US$ 7 billion and US$ 12 billion in receipts By enacting visa facilitation policies, and depending on the facilitation measures introduced, the potential gain in international tourism arrivals for ASEAN member states is between 6 million (low impact scenario) and 10 million (high impact) tourists by This represents an increase in total arrivals of international tourists between 3.0% and 5.1% above the baseline forecast under current visa policies. The increase in tourism receipts resulting from visa facilitation is the product of the increased international tourist arrivals and the average spending per tourist derived from Tourism Economics’ forecast of international tourism arrivals and receipts in each ASEAN member state. The additional 6 million to 10 million tourist arrivals would generate between $7 billion and $12 billion in additional international tourism receipts in ASEAN member states. International tourism receipts would rise between 2.8% and 4.7% above the $169 billion forecast for 2016 under the current policy regimes.

36 ASEAN Integration ASEAN Direct Travel & Tourism Employment
The additional receipts would create between 187,000 and 367,000 direct industry jobs by 2016 Total job creation could reach between 330,000 and 654,000 jobs by 2016 Job creation in the Travel & Tourism sector is fuelled by tourism spending. The spending of the additional tourists resulting from visa facilitation in ASEAN destinations directly supports jobs in tourism industries, including hotels, restaurants, retail stores, transportation, entertainment and recreation. These direct T&T jobs can be calculated from tourist receipts using WTTC research on internal tourism consumption and direct T&T employment for each ASEAN member state. Tourism sales per employee (direct T&T) are calculated as the ratio of internal tourism consumption to direct T&T employment. Dividing the additional tourism receipts generated by visa facilitation by the (direct) tourism sales per employee yields the estimated impact on direct T&T employment. The additional visitor spending generated by visa facilitation would create between 187,000 and 367,000 additional jobs directly in the tourism sectors of ASEAN member states by 2016. The employment impacts are not limited to tourism industries. Indirect jobs are created through the supply chain of tourism industries and induced jobs are generated as employees spend their incomes in other sectors of the economy. The total T&T employment impacts are derived from WTTC research on total tourism demand and total T&T employment in each ASEAN member state. The ratio of total tourism demand to total T&T employment defines total tourism sales per employee. The increased tourism receipts are divided by the total tourism sales per employee for each economy to calculate the total T&T employment impact of visa facilitation. Total job creation (including indirect and induced impacts) from the additional tourism spending in the ASEAN member states could reach between 333,000 and 654,000 jobs by 2016.
