Tourism association in Penang says why reopen hotels if tourism spots will remain closed

GEORGE TOWN, Aug 10 ― Association of Tourism Attractions Penang chairman Ch’ng Huck Theng said it is pointless to allow hotels in states under Phases Two and Three of the National Recovery Plan to reopen for those who are fully vaccinated if tourism attractions in the areas are still going to be closed.

Ch’ng said the opening of hotels and homestays is a welcomed move but it should also be done in stages to reduce risks to everyone. “Anyone coming back from abroad should be quarantined in designated quarantine hotels and not homes as there is no way to control their movement and they may be bringing in new variants,” he said.
