商务实战：5月16日菲律宾将基本没有中国游客

Chinese tourists in the Philippines will return home as their trips conclude by May 16 as scheduled, according to China's tourism administration.

Almost all Chinese people on group tours will return to China by May 16, as that is the final contract day for the remaining groups of Chinese tourists currently traveling in the Philippines, an unidentified official with the National Tourism Administration said Sunday.www.examｗ.com

That mostly means that no one travelling in tour groups will be staying in the Philippines after May 16, the official added, noting the escalation of the Huangyan Island situation.

As of Sunday, 682 tourists in 24 groups were in the Philippines, according to statistics from the administration.

The administration published a statement on Thursday suggesting domestic tourists suspend travels to the Southeast Asian nation out of safety concerns.

Most travel agencies in China have suspended or halted tours to the Philippines and have promised to refund affected tourists.

近日，国家旅游局有关人士在接受采访时说，为保障中国游客赴菲旅游安全，中国游客除非必要应暂缓前往菲律宾旅游，相关旅行社对已报名游客进行退款。预计到5月16日后，这些旅游团将完成所有旅游行程按计划返回国内。
