Hotel sector on path to recovery


Affected: States such as Langkawi, which are highly dependent on international tourists, may take a longer time to recover from the Covid-19 pandemic

THE Malaysian hotel sector, which was on the brink of collapse as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, is slowly making inroads to recovery.

According to the Tourism Ministry, now that domestic tourism and travel is allowed under the ongoing recovery movement control order period, hotel bookings across the country have jumped more than 30% as at June 2020, with reservations being made by locals.
