Budget 2023: Hoteliers lament limited allocation for struggling tourism sector

By DIYANA PFORDTEN

PETALING JAYA: Budget 2023 offers limited allocations for the tourism sector and will not deliver aid to the struggling hotel industry, says the Malaysian Association of Hotels (MAH).

The association said in a statement on Saturday (Feb 25), that the government’s allocation of RM250mil to promote the tourism industry is insufficient to meet the Tourism, Arts and Culture Ministry’s target.
