The safety of female travelers became a mainstream issue earlier this year amidst rape concerns in India, the disappearance of a solo female tourist in Istanbul, and the rescue of two kidnapped women travelers in Ecuador.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The well-being of women abroad isn\u2019t a new topic, but the reputation of destinations and their female-friendly activities are more important than ever as more women start traveling, especially alone.<\/p>\n

Statistics suggest the women\u2019s travel market is worth more than $19 trillion a year and forty percent of corporate travelers are women.<\/p>\n

Hotels started catering to the needs of female travelers in 2010 and the trend has since increased.<\/strong> This year, Ritz-Carlton in Riyadh joined a number of major hotels in New York, London, and Berlin in instituting a women-only floor.<\/p>\n

Safety is especially a concern in Asia where the world\u2019s fastest growing tourism market and a number of male-dominated cultures are mixing for the first time. <\/p>\n

Singapore tops the list with a very low crime rate, 0.1 percent rate of assault, and 1.1 percent rate of reported theft. <\/strong> India does not make the top ten and served as the primary flashpoint for concerns surrounding female safety earlier this year.<\/p>\n

The full list of top ten of safest Asian countries is outlined here.<\/a><\/strong>
