Tourism players eye consortium move to elevate domestic tourism. [Newspaper] (2021)
Abstract
GEORGE TOWN: Tourism players from Penang, Sabah and Labuan are looking to create a consortium to take domestic tourism to the next level. Malaysian Association of Tour and Travel Agents (Matta) Penang chairman Vergis Mathews said all tourism players must work hand-in-hand with airlines and tourism destination owners to revive the industry, which has been badly hit by the Covid-19 pandemic. "We must also work closely together with the state governments to get things done as we plan to turn the industry into inbound tourism," said Vergis during a press conference after the launch of "My Destination Sabah and Labuan to Penang" here today. The programme was officiated by Tourism Malaysia domestic and event senior director Iskandar Mirza Mohd Yusof.
