The tourism sector in Malaysia will focus on small group tours when the country fully reopen its borders, says Tourism Malaysia senior director (domestic & events division) Iskandar Mirza Mohd Yusof.

"Mass tourism might not be suitable at this point in time. We will focus on attracting smaller groups of tourists to comply with standard operating procedures," he said at the My Destination Sabah & Labuan roadshow in Putrajaya.
