PETALING JAYA: The Covid-19 pandemic, which infected millions internationally, causing unprecedented border closures and travel restrictions, has left the tourism and travel sector in shambles around the world.
Analysts are predicting that when the recovery process starts, the travel and tourism sector may be the last to recuperate once the dust settles.
Ushering in 2021, Tourism, Arts and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Nancy Shukri called upon industry players to maintain their efforts in reviving the tourism sector.
Tourism industry players, she said, should continue introducing attractive packages periodically to maintain public interest.
They must also abide by the Health Ministry’s SOP in order to ensure the sustainability of the tourism economy.

The following report takes a look at the results that Arkadia VR Arena has brought to its operators in 2020. The data covers important information that the Location-Based Entertainment industry needs to assess. We analyzed the number of players for each Arkadia VR Arena Unit we have, as well as the average revenue for the attraction.
This is a 6-month report, and it covers the data from May, when a major part of our clients was able to reopen, until October.
Although the market was shaken and people weren’t as confident at the beginning of the pandemic that a Location-Based VR Solution would continue to bring a significant ROI, our results are positive, meaning that people still want to come to a Family Entertainment Center and enjoy VR.
