What makes you think twice of visiting Asia? Poll Results

by Ruth on December 1st, 2006

Ok, here are the results of the small poll conducted here in Let’s Visit Asia.

Question: What makes you think twice of visiting Asia?
Answers:

Political Instability: 26% of all votes
Tsunami, Earthquake, and other natural calamities: 26% of all votes
Health Reasons:16% of all votes
Too far, Too Remote: 32% of all votes

I was a bit surprised to see that there are more people concerned about the natural calamities than health reasons.Whenever I talk to people about travelling in Asia, I always get asked about vaccinations and diseases that are prevalent in Asia, particularly in the tropical regions. And then there’s the SARS outbreak a few years ago, so I thought it would be a bigger issue.

Based from these, it seems that more people would probably visit and travel to Asia if getting there would be easier. After all, a place is only remote until there are reasonable means of public transportation, and for a reasonable price, as well.

Thanks to all who participated in the poll! Looking forward to having all your answers again when I get another poll up in a few days.
