WITH the pandemic hugely affecting travel and tourism, stakeholders must evolve to meet current and future needs, according to Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow.

He said this was especially vital for Penang as the tourism sector makes up 49% of the state’s gross domestic product. Chow was speaking at the launch of the Penang Tourism Master Plan (PGTMP) 2021-2030 which was intended to steer the sector’s recovery and growth in a systematic and sustainable manner.
