According to the Ministry of Hotels and Tourism, the number of
international arrivals at Yangon International Airport
recorded approximately 111,000 in the first half of fiscal
year 2009/10 (April to September 2009), reflecting a
significant 34% increase from the previous year. Local
hoteliers are forecasting that the current supply of hotels
in the market is insufficient to cater for the increased
demand expected in 2010/11. As such, the Ministry of Hotels
and Tourism is actively promoting its tourism market in
cooperation with international and domestic airlines, tour
operators and travel agencies. |

According to the Ministry of Interior, land value in Taipei
City rose by 2.05%, recording the highest growth in the
six-month period from April to September 2009 against
September 2008 as a base period. Across the 16 cities and
counties in Taiwan, land values were recorded to have grown
1.09% in January 2010, as compared to July 2009. The main
factor for the growth has been attributed to the extension
of the mass rapid transit system in Taipei. On the other
hand, declining land values have been witnessed in cities
and counties such as Taitung and Hualien which were affected
by Typhoon Morakot. |
