Portfolio Task 5
The line graph gives statistics for annual trips to Australia by overseas residents. In addition, there is also a table with data on the country of origin of the visitors. Overall, between 1975 and 2005 the numbers rose from 10million to more than 30million.
In 1975 most of the visitors were from Japan and this is still true in 2005 but there has been an increase from 3.2million to 12million. The 2nd biggest number is from south Korea with a three-fold increase. The number from Europe increased dramatically from 1.1 to 4.5million. Other countries in the table were china but they had the smallest amount of visitors, along with the USA and Britain.
In conclusion, Australia is becoming more popular with long distance travelers by almost a factor of 4. This is because air travel is more affordable for people and they are prepaid to go further.
