The conception of specializing the attention to tourism generated by China as an issuing market that is increasingly important, is accompanied as never before by the governmental will of a growing number of countries in the Caribbean region and Latin America.
Such are the cases of Panama, Dominican Republic, Cuba, Antigua and Barbuda, Trinidad and Tobago, Costa Rica, Guyana, and El Salvador linked to the so-called Silk Road, as well as to other Chinese collaboration and investment projects, essentially in infrastructure works and commercial relations.
The Caribbean tourism industry is looking towards the Chinese emitting market, which in 2030 will elevate the condition of middle class and potential visitors to 480 million of its citizens, 35% of the population, according to a forecast of The Economist magazine.

Panama and the Dominican Republic, which provides greater connectivity for the flow of visitors.
Currently about 130 million Chinese vacationers tour around the world every year which consolidates that country in the list of 10 issueing markets with highest turist expenditures, followed by U.S.A., Germany, United Kingdom, france, Canada, South Korea, Italy, Australia, and Honk Kong, among others.
