MATTA urges partial review of Tourism Industry Act


KUALA LUMPUR: Travel and tour agents want the Tourism, Arts and Culture Ministry to amend or revoke one part of the Tourism Industry Act 1992 which it deems ‘problematic’.

Their complaint is the Fourth Schedule of the Tourism Industry Act 1992, issued in 2000, which touches on terms and conditions for outbound travellers, including cancellations and refunds, Malaysian Association of Tour and Travel Agents (MATTA) president Datuk Tan Kok Liang said.
