Abstract: This study examines the positive and negative effects of oil price shocks on tourism arrivals in Malaysia over the period 2000–2016. Using a nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model, our results show that increases in oil prices have a stronger impact on tourism arrivals than decreases in oil prices, both in the short run and the long run.
