Industry players banking on DPN 2020-2030 to revive domestic tourism

12 Jan 2021 / 08:51 H. Pix for representational purpose only. KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 12: The easing of interstate travel restrictions beginning Dec 7 provided a welcome reprieve for hotels and express bus operators who saw a jump in their businesses. However, the sharp increase in COVID-19 cases in recent weeks has forced the government to reimpose the ban on interstate travel nationwide and enforce a 14-day Movement Control Order (MCO) in five states (Penang, Selangor, Melaka, Johor and Sabah) and three federal territories (Kuala Lumpur, Putrajaya and Labuan), beginning 12.01 am tomorrow (Wednesday). Pahang, Perak, Negeri Sembilan, Kedah, Terengganu and Kelantan will be placed under Conditional MCO (CMCO) while Perlis and Sarawak will remain under Recovery MCO.

Self-confidence key to business survival

12 Jan 2021 / 11:32 H. PETALING JAYA: When Darren Tung parted ways with his kopitiam business associate in late September last year, he was naturally apprehensive about jumping into another business venture right away. The Covid-19 pandemic was intensifying with rising numbers of cases all over the country, and many players in the food and beverage industry were forced to shut their doors for good. But thanks to the encouragement from his wife and armed with good business acumen and experience, Tung opened his own food business, called the Tung Tung Eateries, a restaurant that specialises in kuey teow soup. “It was a bold move and I have my wife to thank for it.

LAST week, Human Resources Minister Datuk Seri M Saravanan revealed a statistic that he said was “very worrying” some 91.1% or 1.4 million foreign workers in the country are provided with accommodation that does not comply with the provisions in the Workers’ Minimum Standards of Housing and Amenities Act 1990 (Act 446). Simply put, nine out of 10 foreign workers in Malaysia are housed in quarters that do not meet the minimum standards of living set out under the Act. Videos circulating on social media depicting overcrowded living quarters and unsanitary conditions seem to substantiate the statistic. But for those who have long advocated for the fair treatment of foreign workers, Saravanan’s statement hardly comes as a surprise.
