The U.S. tourism industry is bracing for a slump during the Trump administration, particularly from south of the border.
美國旅游業在特朗普政府下正面臨衰退,尤其來自南部邊境。
Forbes reports some experts expect U.S. tourism to drop by 7 percent this year. By 2018, the country could lose 1.6 billion dollars as a result.
福布斯報道,一些專家預計美國旅游業今年下降百分之7。到了2018,美國可能會因此損失16億美元。
Some of that expected loss has to do with the Trump administration's focus on tighter border scrutiny and deportation. President Trump's campaign trail comments probably don't help, either.
一些預期損失與特朗普政府重點加強邊境審查和驅逐出境有關。特朗普總統的競選意見可能也沒用。
We're going to secure the border, and once the border is secured at a later date, we'll make a determination as to the rest. But we have some bad hombres here, and we're going to get them out.
我們要保護邊境,在稍后的日期一旦邊境確保安全,我們將作出決定。但我們這里有一些壞人,我們要把他們揪出來。
But the U.S. is also facing increased competition from Canada, which recently lifted visa requirements on Mexican citizens entering the country. Travel analysis firm ForwardKeys reports Mexico-to-Canada tourism spiked 82 percent in the month after the requirements were lifted.
但美國也面臨來自加拿大日益增加的競爭,最近加拿大取消了對墨西哥公民入境簽證的要求。旅游分析公司ForwardKeys 報道,簽證取消后的一個月里墨西哥到加拿大的旅游增加了百分之82。
