SWOT Analysis of Tourism industry in Sikkim

Strengths: Sikkim’s greatest strength is its political and social stability. In an age when the pollution has become a major concern, its environment remains pollution free environment with a rich biodiversity. Add to that the high literacy and hospitable people, and an all climate zones and the state has potential to be another Switzerland. Weakness: The most pressing concern for this Himalayan Heaven to emerge as a top tourist destination remains its poor connectivity. The NH 31A is the single highway connecting Gangtok with Siliguri. There is no airport, no railway line and the inter-state connectivity is far sort of the global standard. Quality of accommodation, facilities & services beyond urban areas, limited community participation and poor availability of skilled human resources are other problems. As if all this was not enough, the archaic inner line permit and other restrictions only reduce the attractiveness of the state as the first choice. Opportunities: Despite all the limitation that threaten to mar the prospect of Sikkim’s emergence as an international destination, the Himalayan state has all the potential to emerge as a sought after tourist destination. Be it for events, conventions, exhibitions, rural/village tourism; its rich and diverse heritage, culture and civilisation, mountains and valleys along with religious circuits give it an ideal set up to emerge as a pilgrimage, adventure, wetland and wellness destination. Its natural landscape is suitable for the film industry as well. Threats: The failure to effectively resolve the constraints/weaknesses identified both on the part of the Central and the State Governments is what poses the greatest threat to Sikkim. Given its topography (82% of forest area is under forest. The Tourism Ministry, GOI even declared Sikkim as “Eco-Tourism Destination”) and context there is a great need to involve the communities in decision-making process. This will at least ensure sustainable and eco-friendly growth of rural areas and natural tourism sites. Not to deny that the state needs to resist the ever increasing competition in the tourism sector, often at the cost of environment and the community
