Multiplier Effect and Leakage in Tourism. The Multiplier Effect describes how the spending of tourists at Ngari Capes Marine Park spreads through the local economy. For instance, tourists contribute to local employment through spending on tours, dining, and lodging. This revenue then circulates among local suppliers and workers, benefiting the broader community. Leakage occurs when tourism revenue flows out of the local economy, often due to foreign ownership of tourism operations or the importation of goods. For example, if a large international chain manages an eco-lodge within the park, profits may leave the region rather than benefiting the local community. Both the multiplier effect and leakage are critical in shaping the local economy of the Ngari Capes region. Maximizing the multiplier effect while minimizing leakage is essential for sustainable tourism growth..
