KUALA LUMPUR: The government should draw up a tourism recovery plan for the immediate and medium term to revive the ailing tourism industry, says the Malaysian Association of Amusement Theme Park and Family Attractions (Matfa).

Its president Tan Sri Richard CK Koh said best practices that have been adopted in various other countries such as Thailand and Europe should be used in the proposed recovery plan.

"Food and beverage services and retail trade were the main industries in tourism employment with a share of 34.7% and 32.5%, respectively. Koh called for a three-pronged approach for the recovery plan; financial support and easing of cash flow, statutory exemptions and proactive and inclusive actions on the standard operating procedures .

"We seek a straightforward programme to be managed and distributed by a single agency under the Tourism, Arts and Culture Ministry . Currently, it is vested in the hands of 12 commercial and development banks. We need converged single-window management of this fund," he added. "It also includes, but is not limited to, EPF, Socso, EIS, SST, Quit Rent, Assessment, SSM submissions, income tax installments and Foreign Worker Levy payments."The potential of MySejahtera and the Hotspot Identification for Dynamic Engagement system should be maximised to come up with proactive measures.
