'Everything has to start anew.'

Jonker Street in Melaka may not be as busy as it used to be, but local tourists have been making their way there since the ban on interstate travel was lifted. — LEESAN

The Langkawi travel bubble pilot programme that kicked off on Sept 16 was one of the most important moves made by the ministry, and thankfully, the programme became a success. It also paved the way for the resumption of interstate travel – which automatically restarted tourism activities – in Malaysia, as well as the resumption of outbound international travel for leisure.

As such, every decision made by the ministry will not only impact the country’s economy but will also help sustain a living for a large number of tourism industry workers like myself, who have not been able to get much income for over 20 months now. Sure, since the interstate travel ban was lifted on Oct 11, we have seen new opportunities popping up in domestic travel activities. Although this may not directly benefit local travel agencies or tour guides, at least it offers much-needed breathing space for some in the industry, especially transport service providers, hotels, homestay owners, F&B operators, souvenir makers and more. This will lift the overall tourist economy.

Also, many travel agencies are still cash-strapped and unable to resume their business. These companies need to have operating capital in order to restart operations. At the same time, it is also critical for all travel frontliners to strictly adhere to the SOP in a bid to stop further spread of the virus. Do bear in mind that the travel industry has been beaten beyond recognition and will not be able to withstand another major impact anytime soon.
