Interesting. In this increasingly protectionist world the question of what is local is coming up often. Apparently we need local solar panels rather than cheaper imported ones for example. Might help to rank priorities - jobs, taxable profits, the activity or product itself etc.
Yeah, it is complicated, and I am looking at the above just through a tourism lens. My main concern isn’t foreign firms so much as foreign firms pretending they’re not. Don’t get me started on solar panels! 🤣
Good questions! And none are easy to answer. In part it’s a case of what needs to change at the supply end so that the 3-star joint does a better job community-wise (for eg), while at the supply end, it’s in part a case of how are readers (young and old) better persuaded/informed about CBT schemes. It’s not easy, but think best to come at it from both ends. My thesis at uni is on a part of this, so am putting much thought into it!
