GEORGE TOWN, Aug 6 — The tourism sector in Malaysia, and Penang specifically, is well-positioned to take advantage of the bright prospects of the cruise market in Asia.
“Penang is well-positioned because guests can walk right off the ship into the heart of the city. It is our customers’ favourite stop in South-east Asia cruises,” she said. Meanwhile, Penang Port Commission chairman Datuk Tan Teik Cheng said Penang is primed for a tourism rebound with the arrival of Spectrum of the Seas.
