| description | This paper firstly, discusses the concept of stakeholders participation in
developing sustainable community based rural tourism (CBRT) with respect
to types of community participation, strengths, motivations and barriers to
participation in sustainable CBRT. Secondly, a discussion on the survey of
local stakeholders via questionnaires, which were, carried out in three CBRT
sites in the East Coast of Malaysia. This survey was conducted to identify
main reasons for local participation in CBRT, followed by an analysis of
likelihood of local stakeholders to be included in sustainable CBRT’s
decision-making process. 78% of the respondents (a total of 85) indicated
that the likelihood of them being included in decision-making process has
improved. The paper also indicated two major influential factors for greater
participation of local stakeholders in the decision-making process i.e. good
and workable CBRT organisations and presence of strong leadership. This
paper concludes by commenting on the proposed process to enhance
participation of local stakeholders in developing and sustaining sustainable
CBRT. |
