14/6/2006 15:49

The ongoing World Cup is changing the travel plans of many young Chinese men, according to a research by a domestic leading tourism website.
An on-line survey by the Ctrip shows that among the 3,100 people it polled before Monday, 45 percent believe that they will or might suspend their business trips or travel plan in order to watch the World Cup. More than one-third said they will definitely change their travel plans to ensure they can watch the World Cup.
Netizens who received the survey were mainly from large metropolises such as Beijing and Shanghai and prosperous Guangdong, Zhejiang and Jiangsu provinces. They are mostly people in their 20s or 30s.
