【禁闻】华侨中国游 中共补贴

【新唐人2014年04月21日讯】近年来,海外的华人旅行社登出49美元北京5日游、江南8日游,或99美元北京8日游等广告,并且明确告知是由中共旅游局补助。那么为什么中共要用中国公民的纳税钱资助海外华人旅游?旅行社又是怎样运作的?我们来看看。

请看这则广告,缤纷江南美食游,8天豪华5星团,仅售49美元,全程入住4、5星级酒店。 99美元,北京、天津、承德8天团,5星级酒店,乘坐豪华旅游车。

这么廉价,为什么中国的旅行社还可以做呢?广告为了打消疑虑明确告知,这一类旅行团有国家旅游当局补助。

那么这种广告可信吗?

美国某旅行社人员周先生:“这不是骗人,是由中国‘中旅’专门办这个旅游的。这么便宜的原因,有好几个因素,第一个原因中国旅游局有赞助;第二个,他是鼓励美国的华侨回到中国之后除了玩之外,还多做消费,所以他们能从里面得到一些佣金。”

那么,中共政府为什么要把中国人的纳税钱,给离弃中国的华人花呢?

原新华社记者石玉:“它执行的还是中央政府的意志,这就不能用市场规则去讨论这个事,它肯定是有政治目地的,对台湾一样,收买拉拢,所谓的统战。”

广告上还说,当局的补助对团员有限制,这种好处只给持有美国、加拿大、英国、澳洲、新西兰、墨西哥和南美等国护照,或者持有当地绿卡的华人,并且只卖会讲中文的海外华人。

石玉:“第二种可能,企业它有一定的任务,任务量没完成,那我就倒贴,政治任务比它的所谓经济利益还要重,国有企业的老总也是组织部决定的,他的政治地位还是第一的,每年要请多少美籍华人过来,作为考核指标的。”

据美国某旅行社工作人员周先生透露,他们只负责给中国旅行社拉客人,游客自己买机票坐回中国,到中国后,由中国的旅行社接待。

那么华侨国内的亲人能不能跟着一块旅游呢﹖周先生说,可以一起走,但是不能享受优惠。

周先生:“在国内可以,可是要加钱,至少250块一个人,美元。”

据广州《羊城晚报》报导,广州去年成为了国内第三个外国公民过境的免签城市,为了吸引这批过境旅客游广州,广州市旅游局对负责接待的旅行社采取补贴措施,补贴办法由人头计算。

4月17号,《甘肃兰州网》报导,兰州市旅游局对组织来兰州旅游的旅行社,实行一次性奖励:境外旅游包机100人以上的团队,奖励人民币2万元﹔

不过,据参加过这类旅行团的游客反映,每天导游会带他们去进行两次购物,而这种一个销售人员对一个游客,进行游说的强行买卖,让他们感觉这种旅行实在太痛苦。商家采取讲课、品尝、一对一不断劝说,实在不行,再来一个可怜兮兮的小姑娘不断纠缠,最后总得买些东西。

这位游客描述了一个故事﹕他们来到一家珠宝店,从里面出来一个自称老板的人,听说游客来自各国,老板非常激动,说他看到华侨慷慨捐助汶川地震,很感动,并告诉游客,他的东西很贵,不要买。然后拿出玉石来切玻璃,证实他的珠宝如何真实,接着把玉石送给帮他证实玻璃真假的游客,然后选择合适的时候,用各种名目,非常仗义的把价值10万的蓝宝石项链,非常廉价的卖给老乡等人。

可是游客回来后,检验发现买到的却是假货。

一位参加“99元9天8夜游”的加拿大华人,向媒体投诉,她在中国购买了1000多加元的珠宝首饰,拿到珠宝行鉴定后,发现这些珠宝都是玻璃混合树脂做成的,她说她不可能回到中国去退货,又投诉无门,非常气愤。据这位游客透露,99%的人都买了这种假珠宝

Communist Regime Subsidizes Chinese Tourists from Overseas

Sponsored and subsidized by China National Tourism Administration, ads such as 5-day tour in Beijing or 8-day travel south of Yangtze River for US$49, 8-day in Beijing for US$99 have been promoted in overseas Chinese travel agencies.
Why would the Communist regime subsidize overseas Chinese travel in China at the expense of the Chinese tax payers? How do the mainland travel agencies operate with such low cost tours? Let’s take a look.

Eight-day gourmet southern cuisine and 4 to 5 star luxurious hotel for only US$49; Eight-day tour with 5-star hotel and luxury coach bus in Beijing,
Tianjin, and Chengde for US$99.

How did the Chinese travel agencies manage such cheap tours? The ads explained, these tours are subsidized by China National Tourism Administration (CNTA).

So are these ads real?

Mr. Chow, a travel agent in the United States: “This is not a lie. The CNTZ specifically promoted these trips. There are many reasons why it is so cheap.
The first one is that CNTZ sponsors the travel. The second is that overseas Chinese will consume and make purchases which provide commission."

But why would the regime pay the Chinese who abandoned their own country with their tax payers’ money?

Shi Yu, former Xinhua News Agency reporter: “It is a regime central decision which can not be rationalized by the rule of market. Political purposes are certainly involved. It is a united front propaganda just like how Taiwan is being treated."

The ads specify that subsidies are restricted to Chinese holding passports from the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Mexico and countries from South America, or Chinese with green cards, and only Chinese who
speak Chinese.

Yu Shi: “The other possibility is that any business has certain tasks to be accomplished. To complete the task, where the political responsibility is more
important than the economic benefit, the business will pay for the deficit. These state-owned enterprises are led by people assigned by the state, whose political criteria are the priority. There are quotas for the number of overseas Chinese tourists to accomplish as the business assessment indicators."

Travel agent Mr. Chow says that they are only responsible for promoting the mainland tours. The tourists will purchase their own airline tickets to get to China.

The mainland travel agencies will take care of the trip once the tourists arrive.

Can the family member in the mainland join the group? Mr. Chow says, yes, but no subsidies will be applied.

Mr. Chow: “Mainland relatives can join the group but must pay at least US$ 250 a person."

Guangzhou newspaper reported that Guangzhou has become the third province that provides 72-hour transit visa exemption at ports of entry.

To attract these tourists in transit to travel in Guangzhou, Guangzhou Tourism Administration provides subsidies to travel agencies by the head count.

On April 17, Gansu local news reported that Lanzhou government will provide travel agencies in a one time award of $20,000 yuan to arrange overseas travel groups of 100 people or above in chartered planes.

However, according to tourists who have participated in these tours, the tour guide will arrange shopping twice a day. It is a painful arrangement for the tourists, i.e., one salesperson lobbying purchases from one tourist. The shops will conduct talks and tastings, persuasion one to one. In the end, a poor little girl will show up to join the persuasion until something is bought.

A tourist describes it: They went to a jewelry store. A man claiming to be the owner showed up and was excited to see so many tourists from overseas. He claimed he was very touched by how overseas Chinese have generously donated to the victims of the Sichuan earthquake. He told the group, that the stuff at the store is actually very expensive. He suggested they not buy them. But, he showed a jade stone that cut glass and gave the jade to the tourist who helped to
confirm it did cut the glass. Later, at some time point, with various excuses, he sold a sapphire necklace of $100,000 to the tourists at very low prices.

But once returned home, the visitors realized the products are fake.

A Chinese Canadian who took the 9-day travel for $99 complained to the media.
Some jewelry she purchased in China for more than $1,000 Canadian dollars was identified to be made of glass mixed with resin. She was very upset at not being able to return or to complain. She revealed, 99% of the tour group purchased this fake jewelry.
