Proposed test run for selected Penang attractions only way for tourism industry to survive, says group

GEORGE TOWN, Sept 17 — The proposed test run to reopen selected outdoor tourist attractions in Penang is the only way for the industry to survive and find a way forward, the Association of Tourism Attractions Penang said today.

He said ATAP proposed this test run to the state government last week as a way for the state to slowly reopen its tourism industry. “We have even spoken to the police and we have no issues working with the police to enforce strict SOPs on all visitors,” he said. “This test run proposal is for the industry’s survival. It involves businesses that have been severely impacted by prolonged closures. It involves the livelihood of workers and their families. Don’t use this to play politics and put sand in people’s rice bowls,” he said.
