2 Includes prepayments for goods and services made by visitors, and expenditure by transit passengers and foreign air/sea crew. 3 Excludes Malaysian citizens arriving by land.

Tourism receipts2(TR) generated by visitors grew by 11% over 2004. This is driven by growth in total expenditure of visitors (TEV), which increased by 14% over 2004. All the major revenue markets registered positive growth in tourism receipts compared to 2004. 8 out of 13 top TEV generating markets registered double-digit growth in TEV. Indonesia accounting for 22% of TEV remained as the largest revenue generating markets. In 2005, TEV from Indonesia grew by 6%. In terms of TEV, India rebounded back to position as the second top revenue generating market, posting the highest growth of 34% in 2005. This was driven mainly by the strong growth in visitor arrivals (+24%). Due to the slight decline in visitor arrivals (-3%), China slipped to become the third largest TEV generating market in 2005. Although arrivals from South Korea remained about the same as 2004, the strong growth in average length of stay (+12%) and per diem expenditure (+32%) boosted TEV for South Korea to register a high growth of 32%.

6 Cruise statistics are provided by Singapore Cruise Centre. Passenger throughput refers to the sum of all embarking cruise passengers (i.e. those who arrived in Singapore by air or land but departed on a cruise), disembarking cruise passengers (i.e. those who arrived on a cruise ship but departed by other means) and full-cruise passengers (i.e. those who arrived and departed on the same cruise ship). In addition, cruise passengers from Singapore are included. 7 These statistics are provided by the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority Department. All citizens and permanent residents departing by air and sea are included in the statistics.



Singapore received a total of 454 ship calls in 2005, registering an increase of 16% over 2004. On the other hand, passenger throughput6 decreased by 2% to 623,740 passengers compared to a year ago.

APPENDIX



EXPLANATORY NOTES

A>. VISITOR PROFILE STATISTICS (DISEMBARKATION/EMBARKATION CARDS) 1. Source of Statistics

Visitors arriving in Singapore are required to complete the Disembarkation/Embarkation (D/E) cards, which serve as the source of statistics on visitor arrivals. The accuracy of figures pertaining to the characteristics of visitors is subject to the accuracy in which the D/E cards are filled up. Starting from April 2004, fields such as (1) Purpose of Visit (2) Accommodation (3) Frequency of Trip and (4) Travel Arrangement have been removed from the Disembarkation/Embarkation card.

2. Visitor Arrivals

All visitors are classified by country of residence unless otherwise stated. Total visitor arrivals include all visitors arriving by air and sea and non-Malaysian citizens arriving by land.

3. Geographical Classification

The term "ASEAN" stands for "Association of South East Asian Nations" and refers to the ten-country political association comprising Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Philippines, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. However, when used in the statistical tables, the term excludes Singapore. ‘CIS’ denoted The Commonwealth of Independent States, which consists of Russian Federation, Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Republic of Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Georgia. ‘Scandinavia’ comprises Denmark, Norway and Sweden.

4. Length of Stay

Data on length of stay in this report reflect the actual length of stay in Singapore. The date of each arrival for every visitor is matched against the date of departure to compute the actual length of stay. As some visitors may not depart within the calendar year, the number of visitor departures would be less than the total visitor arrivals for the year.

5. Visitor Days

The number of visitor days for each market is the product of the respective visitor arri-vals and average length of stay.



B. VISITOR PROFILE STATISTICS (OVERSEAS VISITORS SURVEY) AND TOURISM RECEIPTS 1. Methodology

Data on visitors’ travel pattern and tourism receipts are obtained mainly from the Overseas Visitors Survey, as well as data from other sources1. The annual survey covers a sample of about 20,000 visitors departing Singapore mainly via the Changi International Airport. Face-to-face interviews are conducted with visitors at the departure lounges throughout the year. The sample is selected based on a quarterly quota, which is set according to the actual visitor arrival statistics from the same quarter of the previous year. In addition, the data collected are weighted by country of residence, age group and length of stay, based on actual visitor arrival statistics compiled from the D/E cards. This ensures that the profile of visitors’ surveyed resembled the distribution of visitor arrivals in the total population.

2. Definitions

Tourism receipts comprise mainly Total Expenditure of Visitors (TEV), and include expenditure from transit passengers, foreign air/sea crew and foreign students. TEV refers to any expenditure incurred by visitors during their stay in Singapore as well as the amount they prepaid on components such as accommodation and sightseeing tours before arrival. Per capita expenditure refers to per person expenditure or per trip expenditure. Per diem expenditure refers to per person per day expenditure for the trip.

C> HOTEL AND CESS COLLECTION STATISTICS 1. Definitions

CESS is an imposition of tax on certain types of hotel and food and beverage establishments which have been gazetted under the Singapore Tourism (Cess Collection) Act Cap. 305C. The cess rate has undergone changes as follows: 3% prior to 1990, 4% from January 1990 to March 1991; 3% from April 1991 to March 1992 and 4% from April 1992 to March 1994. With effect from 1 April 1994, the cess rate has been reduced to 1% . Average Occupancy Rate (AOR) = Gross lettings (room-nights) divided by available room nights. Average Room Rate (ARR) = Total room revenue divided by gross lettings.
