Dear Friends of Malaysia,

Our Minister of Tourism, Arts and Culture, Dato’ Sri Hajah Nancy Shukri has announced a detailed recovery plan through Economic Stimulus Package as part of its ‘quick win’ strategies to revive tourism sectors and to boost the domestic tourism campaign ‘Cuti-Cuti Malaysia’.

The strategies include three cores – to restore people’s confidence to travel, to revive domestic tourism as well as maximizing available resources.

Hence, in line with the introduction of a domestic travel bubble standard operating procedure (SOP) involving COVID-19 green zones, our Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture has outlined several initiatives ready for implementations.
