海南旅游经济报告书媒体见面会致辞（伦敦）
省长助理、省旅游委主任陆志远
（2011年9月17日）
尊敬的各位（大使）、来宾、各位朋友，女士们、先生们：
大家上午好！
很高兴和大家相见在风景如画的伦敦，相见在这风景宜人的秋天，在这美好的时刻，海南前来英国伦敦举办海南旅游经济报告书媒体见面会。我谨代表海南省政府、875万海南人民和全省旅游业界，为大家致以诚挚的问候！
今天，我们与世界权威的旅游业界组织—WTTC一起，在此举行海南旅游经济报告书媒体见面会，向国际社会尤其是英国媒体介绍海南旅游发展的最新情况。海南已经做好了充分的准备，英国的朋友们将领略到海南最具特色的热带海滨度假旅游资源、原始森林生态、地热温泉和浓郁的民族风情。
2011年英国旅琼游客达8359人次，同比增长30.67%。今年以来，受欧债危机等不利因素影响，前来中国的英国游客数量略减。海南省旅游委统计数据显示，今年1-7月，海南接待英国游客3409人次，同比下降33.96％。但英国入境海南旅游市场十分具有潜力，海南非常珍惜，会采取多种措施振兴这一市场。
2010年初，我们决定与世界旅游业理事会联合撰写《海南旅游经济报告书》。在过去的两年中，世界旅游理事会做了大量的考察和调研，经过多次修改并完善，最终形成了这一具有前瞻指导意义的成果。世界旅游业理事会与牛津经济研究院共同开展的经济影响研究表明，旅游业对经济增长的贡献在过去几年中大幅提升，预测这一增长势头还会持续。在2011—2021十年间，海南旅游业支持的年均增长率预计将达到12。6%，这一指标将超过世界各国经济体。到2021年，海南的旅游消费将达到1108亿人民币，以未来十年的年均实际增长率来衡量，海南在WTTC的排名表中名列第一。
最后，我们诚挚地邀请英国朋友们到海南参观访问、旅游度假，在旅游中感知海南独有的椰风海韵，在旅游中感受海南人民的真情厚意！
