Matta pushes for domestic cruises to help revive tourism. [Newspaper] (2021)



Abstract

The Malaysian Association of Tour and Travel Agents (Matta) has received words from the Ministry of Transport, Malaysia that standard operating procedures (SOPs) for the operation of domestic cruises are being actively discussed with the National Security Council.

Matta president Datuk Tan Kok Liang said it had been working very closely with industry partners like Costa Crociere SPA's Singapore office, and the Ministry of Tourism Arts and Culture to kickstart domestic cruises as a way to help revive the ailing tourism sector.

He said similar cruise products had already been launched in different countries like Singapore and had been successful in providing much needed stimulus to the local economy.
