Topic: The impact of covid and the war on tourism in the Republic of
Moldova.
-Chișinău,2023-
The pandemic and inflation are reflected in tourism. Sustainability, on the
other hand, does not concern anyone anymore, when the reservations are
made for the vacation.
Among the most affected economic fields in the sphere of services is tourism.
The logical question arises: what should the representatives of the tourism
business expect and what should the consumer-tourists expect?
The start of 2020 for the country's tourism industry is predicted to be quite a
good year. Advance bookings, which were up 10-15% year-on-year, reflected
this trend.
What should tourism market agents do at the moment and how should
tourists behave in such a situation?
Transporters were the first to feel the consequences of the war – the rerouting
of Ukrainian and Moldovan cargo flows by road overburdened Moldovan
customs, creating tens of kilometers of queues. Therefore, Moldovan
companies have adapted and found alternative routes for transporting goods,
but the additional costs are passed on to consumers.
In terms of the energy sector, the uncertainty regarding the country's natural
gas and electricity supply is affecting the planning and financial stability of
companies. In this sense, the government should initiate discussions with
business associations whose members use gas in the production process to
identify mechanisms that will allow them to remain competitive.
