Singapore has emerged as the holiday destination in Asia that tourists from China most want to visit in the next 12 months, edging out Hong Kong and Taiwan, according to a survey report released yesterday.

This could be due to Singapore's reputation as a safe country, as 43 per cent of respondents in the study by travel-booking site Hotels.com cited safety as the most important factor influencing their destination choice.

Other factors are the availability of historical and heritage sites (39 per cent) and whether the destination is "value-for-money" (30 per cent), said the report, titled The Chinese International Travel Monitor.

The report surveyed more than 3,000 Chinese travellers and more than 1,500 hoteliers around the world.

Worldwide, Singapore is the sixth destination that Chinese tourists want to visit the most in the next 12 months. The top five countries are Australia, France, New Zealand, the United States and Switzerland.
