| 520 | |a The paper examines the consequences of terrorism for tourism with particular reference to the hotel industry and the case of Singapore.

There is a need for constant vigilance. Tools to combat terrorism directed at hotels are both technological and human and internal and external communications, cooperation and collaboration have an important part to play in effective resistance. | ||
