Canada and South Africa are not the only countries where tourism is closely linked with sport. Ahead of Nepal?s Tourism Year of 2011 Wholesale Washington Redskin Jerseys , the Himalayan country is hoping to boost tourism and capitalise on the popularity of Everest Base Camp. Trekking is the major activity in the region, and vital for Nepal?s tourism, with adventure sports set to boost visitors in the coming years.

Sherpa at the Olympics

As I write, the 2010 Vancouver Olympics are in full swing. In the Ice Hockey, the hosts Canada have lost their grudge match with the USA; Amy Williams has won a long yearned for gold medal for Britain in Luge, and there have been crashes galore on the slopes. Amid all this drama one of the memorable highlights was a moment of camaraderie from the 15km Free Cross Country event.

When participant Danny Silva of Portugal crossed the line in last place Wholesale Tennessee Titans Jerseys , more than ten minutes behind the field, he was greeted with rapturous applause that he wasn?t expecting. He was carried from the line by fellow competitors, the Ethiopian entrant and Dachhiri Sherpa from Nepal. Their smiling faces made one of the pictorial highlights of the games and captured something of the fabled Olympic spirit. For Dachhiri Sherpa, who finished in ninety third spot, just participating was achievement enough since he admits he?s not much of a skier.

Everest Marathon

Before taking up the sport, Dachhiri was an endurance runner. In 2002 Wholesale Tampa Bay Buccaneers Jerseys , he won the Himal race, an arduous 23 stage marathon race between Annapurna Base Camp and Everest Base Camp. After that, with the Olympics in mind, he was asked by his government to take up skiing. At that time, he had never been on skis before.

Although there are mountains galore and plenty of snow in the Himalayas, there are no facilities for skiing Wholesale Seattle Seahawks Jerseys , which made it particularly difficult for Dachhiri to train. Instead, the focus of the region is the Everest Base Camp Trek trail that runs from the famous Lukla airport (renamed Hilary Tenzing airport in 2008) to the Base Camp on the side of the world?s highest mountain.

Rather than skiing, Nepal is geared up to host trekking and long distance running events such as the Everest Marathon, which the 40 year old Dachhiri used to run regularly. This is the highest marathon in the world, beginning at an altitude of over 5100 metres above sea level, within sight of Everest and its Base Camp.

Everest Tourism

In the future Wholesale San Francisco 49ers Jerseys , Nepal is looking to widen its range of adventure sports. Some companies have made bids to run paragliding flights over Everest Base Camp and sightseeing flights near the mountain. A more outlandish proposition is to have a fixed hot air balloon next to the mountain, presumably to serve as a viewing platform, although I hope the winds around Mount Everest (8,848 m) will be taken into account.

Ahead of the Nepal Tourism Year 2011, there have even been talks with China about reintroducing the Lhasa to Kathmandu bus service, a mutually beneficial move to restore a route between Tibet and Nepal. Also Wholesale Pittsburgh Steelers Jerseys , with boosting tourism in mind, the Adventure Sports Tourism Society plans to schedule popular sporting competitions in Nepal such as Mountain Biking and Triathlon events. As well as promoting the Everest Marathon, the Nepal Association of Tour Operators aims to create spectacles such as a sky diving competition with Everest as the focal point.

Some tourism commentators have expressed a concern that Mount Everest may eventually become little more than a theme park venue in the Himalaya. On the other side of the world, in Disneyland, Florida, the Everest Expedition ride has already put this theory into practise. On the ride Wholesale Philadelphia Eagles Jerseys , theme park goers can explore an imitation Himalayan landscape complete with prayer flags and Sherpa villages before boarding a rickety train to Everest Base Camp. The ride ascends a 200 foot high replica Mount Everest, where the riders have a startling encounter with an angry yeti before hurtling backwards down the mountain: a very faithful representation of the true Everest experience!

The Adbusters magazine editor-in-chief Kalle Lason commented around the corporate image creating communication pursuits with the large businesses: “We realize that oil businesses aren’t actually friendly to naturel, and tobacco organizations do not truly treatment about ethics” (Arnold, 2001). However, the “ethics and social duty are crucial determinants of this sort of long-term gains as survival, long-term profitability Wholesale Oakland Raiders Jerseys , and competitiveness with the organization” (Singhapakdi, 1999). With out communications strategy that revolves around ethics and social obligation the ideas of total top quality and customer associations building turn out to be elusive. Nonetheless, there might be no simple clear-cut ethics method of marketing and advertising communications.

As a way to get insights to the consumer perception about the role of advertising we’ve reviewed numerous articles and conducted four in-depth interviews. Several research papers achieve opposed conclusions. These vary through the ones stating that “the ethicality of the firm’s behavior is definitely an important consideration in the course of the obtain decision” and that buyers “will reward ethical habits by a willingness to pay for greater costs for that firm’s product” (Creyer and Ross Jr., 1997) to other people stressing that “although consumers may possibly express a wish to help ethical organizations, and punish unethical organizations, their actual obtain behaviour often continues to be unaffected by ethical concerns” and that “price Wholesale New York Jets Jerseys , top quality and worth outweigh ethical criteria in client obtain behaviour” (Carrigan and Attalla, 2001).
