CANBERRA Authentic Kerryon Johnson Jersey , July 18 (Xinhua) -- Australian hotels need to keep up with the demands placed on them by Chinese tourists, Tourism Australia's boss said on Tuesday.


The remarks came after international research showed that Chinese tourists were less inclined to travel to Australia compared to a year ago.


The research, undertaken by the Expedia-owned Hotels website, found that Australia was third on the list of destinations Chinese tourists intend on traveling to in the next 12 months, down from being No. 1 last year.


Travelers coming from China said Australian hotels were simply under-equipped to handle Chinese tourists, with many indicating that a lack of Mandarin speaking staff was a problem Authentic Frank Ragnow Jersey , in addition to no support for payment facilities such as China Union Pay.


On Tuesday, Tourism Australia managing director John O'Sullivan told News Corp that while Chinese tourists wanted to visit Australia, the lack of support was proving detrimental for the tourism industry.


"The challenge for Australian tourism providers is how to keep pace with this demand," O'Sullivan said.


But some hotels have recognized the challenges and are actively trying to better accommodate Chinese travelers.


Chief operating officer of Accor Hotels, Simon McGrath said his company had launched its Chinese Optimum Services Standards more than five years ago, meaning a number of locations were equipped to deal with Mandarin speakers.


"Today these standards have been adopted by over 50 of our hotels and we as a business continue to grow in this area as we learn more about what our Chinese guests are looking for in -accommodation in Australia Authentic Marvin Jones Jr Jersey ," McGrath said.


Meanwhile the boss of Mantra hotels, Bob East said that while hotels in locations geared towards international tourists should be keeping up with demands from China, there were many hotels in less-popular areas which are primarily aimed at domestic tourism.


"It's a matter of tailoring the product around your most likely target market," East told News Corp.

SYDNEY, July 14 (Xinhua) -- A popular Australian Senator for the Australian Greens Party, Scott Ludlam Authentic Golden Tate III Jersey , has resigned from the Senate effective immediately on Friday, after the revelation that he is a dual citizen of Australia and New Zealand.


This is in breach of the Australian Constitution, that stipulates that under section 44(i) that a person who is a citizen of a foreign power is incapable of being chosen as a senator, or member of the House of Representatives in Australia.


Ludlam, who was born in New Zealand yet moved to Australia when he was nine years of age, said he had assumed that as he became a naturalized Australian citizen when he was in his "mid-teens" Authentic Darius Slay Jr Jersey , that his previous citizenship was not an issue.


"Recently it was brought to my attention that I hold dual citizenship of Australia and New Zealand, I am therefore ineligible to hold elected office in the Federal Parliament," Ludlam said.


"I apologize unreservedly for this mistake. This was my error, something I should have checked when I first nominated for preselection in 2006. I have no wish to draw out the uncertainty or create a lengthy legal dispute, particularly when the Constitution is so clear."


Ludlam, who is incredibly popular with the younger generation in Australia Authentic Matthew Stafford Jersey , particularly millennials, was one of the most active politicians on social media in Australia, recently took time away from the Senate in late 2016, to deal with a widely-publicized struggle with depression and anxiety, drawing waves of support form his fellow parliamentarians, and the general public.


The leader of the Australian Greens Authentic Ziggy Ansah Jersey , Senator Richard Di Natale, said he was "absolutely devastated" by the shock announcement, and that he has the support of the entire Greens organisation.


"Scott's decision today to deal with this issue directly and immediately shows his absolute integrity and character," Di Natale said.


"As a colleague, Scott has been an outstanding member of the parliament and of the Greens. He has been a strong representative for the people of WA and the nation on a range of issues from the anti-nukes movement, digital rights Barry Sanders Jersey , housing and homelessness and so many others. As a friend, one could not ask for anything more."


The unexpected resignation will now likely see the matter taken to the High Court, with the Senate now needing to refer his election to the court of disputed returns, this being the third time this year that circumstances have called for such measures, Rob Culleton formerly of the One Nation Party, and Bob Day from the now defunct Family First Party both themselves being disqualified from holding office.


When asked what he plans to do next A'Shawn Robinson Jersey , Ludlam told the press at a media conference "I will find some other way of stirring up trouble."


Ludlam served as the co-deputy leader of the party, and handled a broad portfolio, including communications, defense, foreign affairs and sustainable cities.
