What 2021 has in store for Malaysia's travel industry

Malaysia has some of the best sea adventure tourism in the world. — LEESAN

While sipping aromatic coffee at the ever busy Chan Hainam Kopitiam in Kuala Lumpur, several sprightly old aunties sitting at the next table yelled out spiritedly, “Wow! Facebook is incredible, huh. The pictures of us playing with snow in Hokkaido on this very day two years ago have all sprung up now. How I miss that. Hope I can travel again very soon.”

One of them saw me smiling upon hearing that (and eavesdropping on their conversation!), and recognised me. “Hey, Leesan, when can we go overseas again?” she asked loudly.
