another factor that affect singapore tourism

H1N1 also badly affected Singapore Tourism.

It affect singapore as Singapore declined visitors arrivals from markets such as japan and china which can be attributed in part to the global outbreak of Influenza A (H1N1).The swine flu outbreak in Mexico and US has badly hit the tourism and airline stocks in Singapore. Although the pharmaceutical and healthcare stocks have rose due to the sudden outbreak of this disease. Analysts say that the pace with which the swine flu spreads is likely to affect the markets more. As the Health Ministry in Singapore have advised the people to ignore or postpone the non-essential travel to Mexico, it will also affect the airlines sector in Singapore.

Because Singapore had rejected most of the visitors arrival , Singapore tourism drop rapidly , and hotels suffered huge losses , as their customers could not arrive in Singapore.

therefore , singapore tourism was badly affected by the H1N1 , as singapore had to cancel all visitors arrival to prevent further spreading of the disease.
