AN extensive online Hotel Security Survey has been launched by trade magazine HOTEL Asia Pacific and hospitality IT specialists Pertlink in the wake of the Bali bombing.
The comprehensive survey, which can be accessed at www.hotelasiapacific.com or www.pertlink.net, is designed to assess the industry's security awareness in the face of increasing terrorism throughout the world.
A similar survey, launched a year ago after the 9/11 attacks in the US, received tremendous feedback from the industry, according to HOTEL Asia Pacific publisher/editor Steve Shellum.
It is essential that the industry works together to share data and knowledge on this crucial issue, said Shellum. Following recent tragic events, no hotel can afford to let its guard down, and the survey will provide an important indicator of how prepared the industry really is. It also provides an essential checklist of security issues that need to be addressed by every hotel, whatever its size or location.
Like last year, the survey is hosted by Pertlink, which will collate the results and make them available to the industry at the above websites, as well as in HOTEL Asia Pacific magazine.
Managing Director Terence Ronson said: We are confident that the sharing of information will be a benefit to everyone in the industry”.
All information will be kept strictly confidential.
