(complete with loads of LINKS)
START HERE: More tourists
Increase demand for goods and services in
agriculture, drinks, transport,
entertainment, textiles and crafts.
Tourist stay in hotels and spend money on local cafés and shops (more income
for local businesses).
Money earned by locals mean they can buy food and other necessities
More money for improving
infrastructure and facilities for locals and
tourists.
Tourism is both directly and
indirectly responsible for half a million
jobs in Kenya!
So people NOT directly involved
in tourism industry also make more
money
Their increased wages mean
more taxes and money for the government
(Money can be used to help protect and improve the
ENVIRONMENT too)
