More needs to be done for the tourist guide community that has been severely impacted by the pandemic. — Filepic With borders closed to international travellers since March last year, many tourist guides in the country have been grappling with bread-and-butter issues.

Some respite came recently when Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin announced a new assistance package – the Perlindungan Ekonomi dan Rakyat Malaysia or Permai – worth RM15bil.
