Recommended Posts

China's domestic tourism rebounded above pre-pandemic levels during the five-day May Day break.

Tourists made 274m trips within the country during the holiday period, China's Ministry of Tourism says.

That was almost 20% higher than in 2019, before the outbreak of Covid-19 triggered lockdowns across the country.

Official figures also show that tourists spent $21bn (£16.7bn) during the period, more than twice the amount seen the same time last year.

"This can be seen as a turning point of China's tourism sector. The market performance has truly returned to its 2019 level," Dai Bin, president of the China Tourism Academy told the official state news agency Xinhua.

The May Day break, which ended on Wednesday, is one of China's most important national holidays.

So what?  I. for one,  am supremely uninterested in their domestic holiday habits. 

I'm much more interested in what their deeply untrustworthy government are up to,

You would have made a better and relevant point,if you had questioned the status of foreign tourism. If you're not interested, why bother to comment?

It's a public forum, that is what they are for.   To express an opinion on a range of reports and subjects, while not attempting to change anyone's mind, or win a debate.  Clear now?

Really? Comments posted on this forum are supposed to be exempt from analysis and criticism? There's an awful lot of history against you. Oh no...I've just criticized another comment of yours...

Who said that. I didn't? 

Here's what you wrote that a forum is for:

 

"To express an opinion on a range of reports and subjects, while not attempting to change anyone's mind, or win a debate. "

 

You're the one who defined the limitations.
