Take tourists to see local attractions, not shopping, travel agencies told

KUALA LUMPUR: Local travel operators have been told to ensure the itineraries for tour groups are to let them see as many local attractions as possible, and not for shopping, says Datuk Seri Tiong King Sing.

The Tourism, Arts and Culture Minister said the ministry had received numerous complaints that tour groups were only able to see one or two tourist attractions before they were taken to specific outlets for shopping.
