Tourism official advises prudence on development in Pangkor


The island is one of the more popular beach destinations on the west coast of the peninsula.

THERE are other more important things to take care of than push for Pangkor’s duty-free status to be officially declared, Perak Tourism Association (PTA) Chairman Datuk Mohammad Odzman Abdul Kadir says.

Mohammad Odzman said while he supports the idea, the new Pakatan Harapan state government should, however, hold off on immediately implementing the initiative and look into resolving other issues first.
