THE Malaysian Association of Hotels (MAH) wants the government to consider tax exemption as one of the ways to help the beleaguered tourist industry overcome the impact of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) outbreak.
“It will be the biggest stimulus for domestic tourism if what Malaysians spend on holiday programmes endorsed by Tourism Malaysia could be exempted from tax,'' MAH (Penang chapter) chairman Eric Lim told StarBiz.
