KUCHING, May 2 — The recent claims that direct flights between China and Malaysia are lacking compared to flights from China to Singapore and Thailand are inaccurate, said Datuk Seri Tiong King Sing.
He said Malaysia was losing out to Singapore and Thailand, which provided direct flights to and from China, and that tourists were not keen on chartered flights as they were more expensive than commercial flights. Tiong pointed out that there have been several dialogues and discussions with relevant parties concerning direct flights between China and Malaysia.
“The feedback received so far has been limited,” he revealed and appealed to tourism players to bring up issues that can be tackled together to promote and revive the tourism industry towards significant economic contribution again. He urged all tourism players to jointly discuss formulating more effective policies and measures to enhance Malaysian tourism’s competitiveness, through improving service quality, innovating marketing strategies, reducing costs, raising efficiency, and removing red tape to better attract travellers.
“Rather, both must work together to find weaknesses in the tourism sector and improve policy-making for marketing guidelines.
