KOTA KINABALU: Malaysia's tourism industry has suffered an estimated RM3bil in losses to date due to the Covid-19 coronavirus outbreak.

Tourism, Arts and Culture Ministry secretary-general Datuk Noor Zari Hamat said industry players such as hoteliers, travel agents and food and beverage businesses had been severely impacted with cancellation of flights and trips.

All have been affected since January," he said on Wednesday during the Tourism Recovery Action Committee town hall roadshow with local tourism industry players in Sabah. Zari said due to the difficulties faced by the sector, they had to also look at ways to mitigate the impact, including asking the government to postpone introducing the minimum wage ruling this year.
