KOTA KINABALU, Sept 24 — Sabah is looking to tap into the Indian tourism market, particularly the wedding and film-making industry, said Assistant Minister of Tourism, Culture and Environment Datuk Joniston Bangkuai.

"We want this situation to return and to re-capture our potential Indian guests. In addition, we hope to welcome Indian filmmakers too as our destination is already well sought after for documentaries,” he added. "We at the Sabah Tourism Board want to work closely with tour agents and airlines to expand indirect passenger traffic to Sabah, and who knows, with enough Indian arrivals, we might be able to schedule direct flights from India one day,” he said.

The group is among 543 members of the Travel Agents Federation of India who recently attended the TAFI conference in Kuching, Sarawak.
