Abstract

Tourism industry is vulnerable to external shock such as natural and human-caused disasters. Covid-19 shows an example of vulnerability and threat for tourism industry. In the future, the possibility of the risk like these threats cannot be denied. This study employs a quantitative approach, conducting an online survey on risk perception of Japanese, Chinese, and Taiwanese. Respondents are asked about degree of risk perception when going on an oversea trip. To measure the degree of risk perception, Steel-Dwass test will be used to analyze the multiple comparisons of each respondents’ evaluation. The results of this study clarify that there are significant differences among Japanese, Chinese, and Taiwanese respondents in some items of the questionnaire survey. It is important to discuss risk management plan considered characteristics of the people of country or region.
