Tourism operators in the country can now tap into the Malaysian Tourism Incentive Fund (Gamelan) to revitalise the domestic tourism sector, says the Tourism, Arts and Culture Ministry.

The fund which was introduced in 2019 with an allocation of RM5mil, was postponed last year due to the implementation of the movement control order.
