Despite borders reopening on April 1, Perak eco-tourism operators lament lack of bookings from foreign tourists

IPOH, March 25 — Eco-tourism operators in Perak admitted that they have received no booking or inquiries from foreign tourists so far, with just a week until the country’s borders reopen for international travellers starting from April 1., the operators said they have to rely on local tourists as interstate travel was allowed back in October for all fully-vaccinated Malaysians, although they were regularly hosting foreigners prior to the pandemic hitting the hospitality industry.

Meanwhile, a receptionist from Kledang Saiong Forest Eco Park said that hikers entering its forest are also mostly still locals. “We are well-prepared. We don’t have issues of workers shortage and we have been in this business for more than 10 years. Ooi said that among the attractions that visitors could enjoy during their stay at the resort include white water rafting, waterfall, abseiling, caving, camping, and paintball.
