No tourist ringgit

Tourism minister Azalina makes her move to weaken the tourism industry of the PR states. She stated that all MOUs (Tourism Action Councils) with the PR -led states will be terminated because of the change in leadership. All programs planned earlier by the previous govt will go on as planned. The difference is that all funds will be handled by the federal govt, not by the state govts. That means no tourist-ringgit is coming to Penang,Kedah,Perak,Selangor & Kelantan states. The federal govt gets the tourist- ringgit instead, is that how it goes ?

Salam Pakshah,

Been quite a while since I was last here, hope things are shaping well for you there.

Anyway, don't worry about the federal people. They can talk all they want, but the tourist will still be coming, insyAllah.
