Findings indicated that tourists' gender, origin, and educational level present indicate significant difference on crisis communication, information quality and government policy in tourist destinations. Relevant conclusions have important practical application meaning on how government of tourist destinations should form effective crisis communication with tourists during and after unconventional emergencies
