Abstract

This study examines the intricate relationship between tourism development, environmental sustainability, and economic growth in Southeast Asian economies. The rapid expansion of tourism in this region has been a significant driver of economic growth, contributing to job creation, infrastructure development, and foreign exchange earnings. However, the environmental impact of increased tourism activities poses substantial challenges to sustainability. This research employs an empirical analysis of data from several Southeast Asian countries to explore the dynamic interactions between these three variables. The findings reveal a nuanced relationship: while tourism development positively influences economic growth, it also exerts pressure on environmental resources, leading to sustainability concerns.
