China's National Tourist office and China's biggest airlines are collaborating with Tourism Australia to improve the two country's tourism. The Chinese government confirmed it will improve investment in tourism specifically in its rural and aging areas. Additionally, complaints regarding China's toilet hygiene will be rectified as the tourism improvement plan contains a promised "toilet revolution" -- a renovation of 100,000 public toilets in famous Chinese tourist spots.
According to News.com.au, China is chasing after Australian tourists by improving routes and its hygiene through the "toilet revolution." The news website said Australians are the 13th highest in the number of tourists visiting the mainland. An estimated 720,000 Australians visit Chinese vacation and tourist spots according to China's National Tourism Administration data.
The news website also said that six giant Chinese airliners including Air China, China Southern, China Eastern, Hainan Airlines, Sichuan Airlines and Xiamen air will reinforce the Chinese- Australian tourism plans. Australian tourism also stands to benefit from the joint goal of greater capacity and route improvement between Australia and China.
According to Reuters, China's 100,000 public toilet renovation is part of its investment of $290 billion to improve Chinese tourism in general -- a program set to last between 2016 and 2020. The news website estimates that the investment can see Chinese tourism grow by 14 percent during the period. The government plans to use its provisions to improve China's rural and troubled sectors and the country would have purchased about $1 trillion in tourism goods and services by 2020 from this year.
Hygiene has been a great concern over China's tourist spots specifically toilets and cubicles for public use. Poor public budgets with lack of reinforcement from local governments have deteriorated basic hygiene facilities in famous vacation spots.
The Chinese government is set to improve its aging industrial cities in the northern areas of the countries by introducing tourism. China aims to turn depleted mines and facility lots into parks and recreational spots through its billion-dollar investments.
