China Outbound Market Report

Dr. Wang Xin Jun, MD of Ivy Alliance Consulting has published a comprehensive report on the Chinese outbound tourism sector with support from PATA and Global Refund. Normally you expect such reports to be sold for USD 1,000 or more as it has comprehensive statistics up to 2006 and very detailed analysis of market segments and destinations. Don't be fooled by other reports sold online for these prices. I have read through this paperback report and was impressed by the level of detail. This is a good report for people researching this market or wanting to build a business case for investment in the sector.
