Located east of Metro Manila, the province of Rizal is one of the most popular destinations among travelers from Manila and nearby areas — thanks to its close proximity and its wide buffet of attractions. Summit-seekers will never leave wanting because Rizal nurtures mountains that flaunt thick forests and striking rock cliffs.
3.1 Tribal Cultural Tourism May be explored by way of traditional festivals, dances and folk art. To experience life in these states one must stay in the villages or mingle with the tribals. A good way to understand tribal culture is to participate in their traditional festivals. These celebrations and fests occur normally during the
Tribal tourism is a relatively new type of tourism. It involves travellers going to remote destinations, staying with local people and learning about their culture and way of life. They stay in local accommodation, share facilities with local people, and join in with meals and celebrations. At the moment, less than one percent of holidays are tribal tourism holidays, but this is set to change.

Tribal tourism is a relatively new type of tourism. It involves travellers going to remote destinations, staying with local people and learning about their culture and way of life. They stay in local accommodation, share facilities with local people, and join in with meals and celebrations. At the moment, less than one percent of holidays are tribal tourism holidays, but this is set to change. Tribal tourism is often compared with foreign exchange visits. However, a foreign exchange involves staying with people who often share the same values. Tribal tourism takes visitors to places where the lifestyle is very different from that in their home location. Those who have been on a tribal holiday explain that experiencing this lifestyle is the main attraction. They say that it offers them the chance to live in a way they never have before. Not everyone is convinced that tribal tourism is a good thing, and opinions are divided. The argument is about whether or not it helps the local population, or whether it exploits them. The main problem is that, because tribal tourism is relatively new, the long-term influences on local populations have not been studied in much detail. Where studies have been carried out, the effects have been found to be negative. So, it is possible to experience an exotic culture without harming it in someway? “With a bit of thought, we can maximise the positive influences and minimise the negative,” says travel company director Hilary Waterhouse. “The most important thing for a tribal tourist is to show respect for, learn about, and be aware of, local customs and traditions. Always remember you’re a guest.”Adapted from “Complete IELTS” by Rawdon Wyall According to Hilary Waterhouse, the most important thing for a tribal tourist is to ________.

1. IntroductionTourism has been identified as a vital mechanism of sustainable development in rural indigenous areas [1,2,3,4]. Since indigenous areas have profound ethnic culture and ecological significance and sensitivity, successful tourism development must consider the perceptions of the local community in order to build a mutual relationship grounded on respect, trust, and feasibility to create local acceptance and support [2,5,6,7,8]. Increased attention is being focused on the extension from agricultural to tourism development in rural indigenous areas in order to create impacts such as economic activation, income and employment production, public infrastructure creation, culture preservation, and nature conservation [4,7,9,10]. Although tourism development has desired impacts, it can also produce undesired consequences. Depending on the case, those undesired impacts may include local culture dilution, pollution, conflicts with tourists, and damage to the natural environment [11,12,13,14,15]. Local communities are in direct contact with the changes in their community in which they both tolerate and benefit from the consequences of tourism development. The concerns that have arisen over indigenous residents’ perceptions and opinion have become a critical consideration in sustainable tourism planning and a focus of tourism impact research [2,5]. There has been a shift in attention from a focus on tourism impacts to how the impacts are perceived and chosen by the hosting community in the context of tourism development strategies [3,5,11,12,16]. Understand the attitude and perception of the local residents is fundamental for making informed decisions and selecting optimum practices in tourism development. Impacts of Tourism DevelopmentIn terms of tourism impact, as tourists interact with the local environment, economy, and community, tourism activities generate combined influences on the economic, natural, cultural, and societal status in the destination. A number of books and papers have focused on a wide range of multi-faceted characteristics related to tourism impacts and have stated that the consequences can be positive and beneficial as well as negative and undesired [11,14]. The following two sections provide literature reviews of tourism development concerning its impacts on the local economy, environment, and society. Economic and Environmental Impacts of TourismThere has been a wave of interest in the relationship of economic impacts in hosting communities. Much of the research on economic impacts has centered on the effects of income and employment since the local residents generally anticipate and seek to benefit from economic stimulations through job opportunities in tourism service or sales pertaining to food, accommodation, crafts, and activities [16,17,18,19]. Although tourism can negatively impact the economy through aspects such as inflation, public sectors often consider positive economic impacts as the main tourism impacts and therefore prefer to select tourism as the development approach instead of other industrial options, especially for rural area development. Environmental impacts have been widely investigated to contribute insights into tourism. The literature suggests that the environmental impacts of tourism principally depend on local conditions, such as locality, activity type, form of tourist infrastructure, and can be the result of the planning practices [7,8,20]. In terms of carrying capacity, some places are more fragile than others, such as rural vs. urban areas; the type of activity influences the impacts on the site [15], such as hiking by foot vs. riding all-terrain vehicles. In addition, the preparation of infrastructure and construction for tourism service substantially affects impacts [17,20,21]. Newly constructed buildings, roads, parking lots, and facilities, if not carefully planned, can impact local ecological habitats, damage original visual resources, and weaken the site’s resilience to natural disasters in extreme weather, such as soil erosion, landslides, and use overload. Environmental pollution due to increased tourism, such as traffic congestion, littering, and noise, is an important impact that affects the quality of residents’ daily lives [12,22]. From the growing body of literature on tourism impacts, although there are positive impacts on the environment, such as environmental protection and conservation, the relationship between tourism and the environment has been unequal. Tourism is conventionally considered a substantial contributor to environmental problems rather than a vehicle for environmental protection. Societal and Empowering Impacts of TourismTourism also significantly impacts societal aspects [8,16]. Research has empirically documented the links between tourism development and the changes in a group of people, their interactions, attitudes, and behavior patterns, as well as impacts on cultural aspects, which involve knowledge, values, and art [13]. These aspects and their intricate relationships have been described in the literature by both qualitative and quantitative investigations. The findings of those studies reflect the context-sensitive nature of the socio-cultural impacts of tourism [7,23]. Researchers have shown that tourism has both positive and negative socio-culture impacts. The positive impacts include the effects on the renaissance of traditional activities, arts, crafts, the revitalization of cultural social life style, as well as the stimulation of supportive resources, the preservation of traditional architectures and historical remains, and the protection of scenic landscapes [5,16,17,24,25]. The negative impacts include issues of cultural authentication, local community disturbance, and the development of adversarial relationships between locals and tourists [9,16,26]. A number of publications have indicated a renewed interest in the empowerment effects of tourism, identifying the transformation of local residents’ self-identity as one important socio-culture impact of tourism. Studies have noted that the process of identity transformation involves the interactions among tourists, local residents, and the external forces that affect the representation and conversion of local identity [8,16,25,27]. In indigenous communities, studies have found that members dynamically negotiate their identities with visitors. In these interactions, residents redefine their identity and tend to develop recognition of the uniqueness of their cultural traditions and native identity [25,27]. Residents’ participation and attitudes are the foundation for whether tourism development can be sustainably supported in the destination. A fairly large body of literature discusses both the positive and negative impacts of tourism. However, few studies have been published on community acceptance of tourism impacts [6,9,17,28]. Although tourism has been noted to influence residents’ attitudes and perception, there has been relatively little research on measurements of the perceived tourism impacts on the acceptance of indigenous hosting residents. The Discrete Choice Model DCMThe DCM describes a decision makers’ choice among alternatives and provides information about the complex aspects of a decision makers’ choice behavior. The elicited choice allows researcher to quantitatively examine the effect of each testing aspect through the developed choice experiment. This model has been used to estimate choice behavior in a wide range of research field, tourism development [29,30], transportation planning [31,32], and landscape management [19,33,34,35].The theoretical basis of DCM is characteristics demand theory [36] and random utility maximization theory [37]. Lancaster’s demand theory states that consumers derive utility not from the actual alternatives but from the characteristics or attributes of the alternatives accessible in an applicable choice set. Random utility maximization theory presumes that every individual makes a decision under rationality and maximizes the utility relative to their choice. Discrete choice models statistically model decision makers’ choices among a finite set of alternatives. The collection of alternatives is called a choice set. Alternatives must satisfy the following criteria exhaustive, mutually exclusive, and finite number of alternatives. Each alternative generates certain levels of utility to a decision maker, who is assumed to exhibit utility maximizing estimation of discrete choice models requires choice data. The source can either be the revealed preference data or stated preference data. Revealed preference data or transaction data are data matrices with the actual choices made by decision makers in real settings, such as scanned data in a supermarket or the reservation records in a restaurant. Stated preference data are the real choices made by decision makers in a hypothetical or simulated environment with choice alternatives systematically constructed by the researchers. Although the revealed preference data disclose decision makers’ actual behavior, they often suffer from insufficient information about key attributes for estimating the model. Therefore, we used stated preference data as our data source, developed an experimental design to present choice alternatives with key attributes, and measured decision levels in a controlled environment, which enabled the modeling of respondents’ decisions with greater flexibility and well-intentioned properties. Although tourism development can have both positive and negative impacts on cultural identity, the economy, and the environment in rural indigenous communities, we do not know how and to what extent people balance these impacts. Thus, research concerning how residents perceive the inseparable positive and negative tourism impacts in indigenous sites is lacking. As such, we designed an empirical study using choice modeling to provide insight into this issue. Based on the perception of indigenous communities, the purpose of this study was to investigate the aspects that influence the support for tourism development. We attempted to supplement the findings of these previous studies. This study is comparable to the earlier studies in that the focus is on tourism impacts, but differs from previous studies in the way in which the hosting indigenous communities’ perception of tourism impacts is in practice tourism has both desired and undesired impacts on the community, we wanted to contribute to the understanding of how different impacts affect indigenous residents’ support of tourism development. The study results may assist planners to recognize local perceptions when evaluating the various impacts of planning options. The objectives of this study were to examine which impacts influence local residents’ perception of tourism development and to what extent the impacts influence the indigenous residents’ perception. We used discrete choice modeling to establish experimental choice sets to elicit local residents’ choices among alternatives that combine the impacts derived from the literature and match the site conditions, including the impacts of local and regional economic benefits, pollution affecting quality of lives, tourist conflicts, natural environment damage, cultural architecture and landscape promotion, and cultural self-identity. 2. Methods The purpose of this study was to provide empirical indications as to which tourism impacts are important to the local community, and to what extent the effective impacts influence the local indigenous residents’ attitudes. We designed a discrete choice experiment to collect data, to provide quantitative estimates of the influence of tourism impacts. Study SiteThe study site is located at Laiyi Township, Pingtung County, Taiwan Figure 1. Laiyi Township is a geographically mountainous and culturally indigenous area with an area of nearly km2. Its indigenous population is of the total population of 7428 [38]. This area is the native territory of the Paiwan Tribe and many Paiwan traditional customs and religious rituals are still performed in this area. Along with the scenic forests, streams, waterfalls, and native totems, Laiyi attracts visitors due to its natural and cultural resources supporting tourism and outdoor recreation activities. The Laiyi area is geographically mountainous with interspersed settlements patterned in the area, but is conveniently located to the immediate tourism markets the well-populated Pingtung and Kaohsiung cities are approximately 50 km and 100 km away. Currently, the site tourism development has been under discussions between the local communities and several administrations in different levels, including the township, county, and federal levels, to evaluate the suitable development strategies and practical aids in site planning for the practices in the Laiyi area. The Discrete Choice ModelWe used the Discrete Choice Model DCM method in this study. The following explains the DCM estimation model in this study. In this study, a decision maker n faces competing J alternatives. The decision maker obtains a certain level of utility vnj from alternative j, where j = 1 , … , J . The decision maker chooses the alternative that provides the greatest utility among the alternatives. The model of choice behavior for the decision maker is therefore defined as alternative i is chosen by the decision maker only if v n i > v n j ∀ j ≠ i .However, a certain level of utility v n i is not observable to us. The observable utility to the researchers is denoted as U n j = v n j + ε n j , n = 1 , … , N and j = 1 , … , 1 where n is an index for the individual decision maker, j is an index for the alternatives in a choice set, v n j is the non-stochastic utility component, and ε n j is the error term capturing the stochastic components. The non-stochastic utility component v n j is assumed to be a linear function in the parameters denoted as where x n j is a vector of attributes of alternative j and β is the coefficient for the utility function. The observable utility U n i can be expressed as U n j = x n j ′ β + ε n j 3 Given that the decision maker chooses the alternative that generates the maximum utility and y n j is the response vector for the n th decision maker, the response from the n th decision maker can be denoted as y n j = { 1 , i f U n j ≥ max U n 0 , otherwise 4 where y n j is 1 if U n j takes the maximum value among the j th component of U n = U n 1 , … , U n J , and y n j is 0 the probability for the decision maker n choosing alternative j is denoted as follow [37] P y n j = 1 = Pr U n j > U n k for all k ≠ j = Pr v n j + ε n j > v n k + ε n k for all k ≠ j = Pr ε n k − ε n j or Table 3.
