| The opposition's complaint about the impending departure levy for those flying out of the country has found support from Tourism Minister Mohammadin Ketapi .
During Question Time, Jalaluddin Alias said AirAsia Berhad had met with the opposition to ask that it conveys concerns to the government about the departure levy, which is expected to come into force in September. "It will disrupt the arrival of foreign tourists. So they asked if YB can ask the Pakatan Harapan government to postpone the departure levy, so at least we can bring in as many tourists as possible in 2020," Mohammadin told the Dewan Rakyat.
This is in anticipation of the Visit Malaysia Year in 2020, where the Tourism Malaysia is targeting to bring in RM100 billion in tourist receipts. Responding to this, Mohammadin replied:"I strongly agree", surprising the opposition bench, which then cheered in agreement.Mohammadin then said he would seek to convince Lim on the postponement.Once the departure levy comes into force, those departing from Malaysian airports to Asean destinations will have to pay RM20 a person, while those departing to non-Asean destinations will have to pay RM40.
