Tourists, either locals or foreigners, can be considered as precious gems of
tourism industry because without them, there will be no service of hospitality. Not only that, businesses will not grow and so, the economy of the country will be affected. Since people around the world demands for travel until now, tourism continues to play a very important role in generating foreign revenues and in terms of economic development. In this case, tourism acts as a transformation agent. It helps to renew or reconstruct the damage in the service and turn it to a more hospitable service that can entice more tourist. Take Manila Bay for example, since it became dirty and full-garbaged, locals and foreigners haven’t seen visiting the place or doing activities like jogging, swimming, playing sports, families having their picnics, or even watching the sun to set. It is perishable and because of what happened to it, it became unattractive to visitors, that’s why it didn’t only failed to meet the expectation of the tourists but it also affected the economic growth of the service industry. Considering that people love to travel, influx of tourists in the Philippines didn’t affected so much. This is where tourism plays its role. Whereas it provides accomodation, entertainment, food and beverage, insurance, travel, and shopping, it is not questionable how it helped to transform the Manila Bay with the goal of bringing back its beautiful view to attract more tourist. Tourism helps more as a transformation agent when tourists tend to have disposable income especially if they will stay for a short period of time. Because of this, they tend to do more leisure activities. Knowing this, tourism brings amounts of income in the countries. Therefore, it doesn’t only transform the entertainment of hospitality industry but also the activities of the tourists. Since tourism is complex, it needs to be managed so that services or the scope of the hospitality industry will be sustained and the risks in the economic development if may not be prevented, then at least risks aren’t greater. Transforming through tourism is very important in a way that it will utilize the tourism for growth and manage the services. Tourism as a transformation agent is vital in making countries to have a sustainable tourism and with this, transformation is needed.
