This report presents the results of a study supported by the APEC Tourism Working Group (TWG) to help member economies identify and respond to impediments to the growth of international tourism. The report provides updated (to 2004) matrixes of impediments by APEC member economies, as well as detailed reports and Individual Action Plans (IAPs) for five participating member economies (Canada, Chile, Indonesia, Peru and the Philippines). Recommendations for the TWG Collective Action Plan are also provided.
