What Is Economic Leakage In Tourism And Why Is It So Bad For The Tourism Industry? 

Thanks Dr. It is always very instructive your lectures, need to catch up all the info you have already gave thru the video lectures. Greets from Ecuador

Thank you for the great information. I have never thought about tourism in this way. I wish more people get to know about this. Definitely try to shop locally instead of sticking to the international brands the next time

your explanations are impeccable... thank you!

In my opinion, this is one of the biggest challenge for the future.

Hi hello! Do you have some paper about what destinations sufffer more leakage? Or some type of theory about how much percent represents?

Capitalism is at the root of this problem. It's very similar to resource extraction. I think it's important to point out the issues with current tourism like you have in this video but I think it's harmful not to see how capitalism as a structure at it's root incentivizes this behavior and is so harmful to these communities.
