1.0 Introduction
I have chosen one of the most poignant proble

Terrorism generates fear in the people such that they avoid places that are most susceptible to danger of terrorism. Taking reference from “The Impact of Terrorist Bombings on the Market Values of Hospitality and Tourism Enterprises: GLOBAL Evidence from Turkey, Spain and Indonesia”, (Francis A., 2010) looking back at the incidents that have occurred in last two decades where terrorists have unleashed terror on people.

It was additionally the first run through when outsiders in the nation were the objective of an assault, changing a household disaster into one that wound up having noteworthy global repercussions. In any case, the biggest criticalness of 26/11 lay in the effect that it had on open feeling. At no other time had a fear monger assault offered ascend to open discussion of the...
