HAMZAH: The session with the prime minister would give the opportunity to members to discuss the current tourism market situation.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak is scheduled to meet members of the Malaysian Association of Tour and Travel Agents (MATTA) in a 'Meet the Prime Minister Session' on Aug 27, at the Putra World Trade Centre (PWTC).
MATTA president Hamzah Rahmat said the session with the prime minister would give the opportunity to members to discuss the current tourism market situation, travel industry issues, as well as the country's tourism development.
"Suggestions and requests during the discussion will help the government to bring the tourism industry forward, and also as preparation towards making Malaysia a developed nation by 2020," he told reporters at the MATTA Hari Raya open house, Wednesday.
He said the country's travel industry - inbound and outbound - was down by 30 per cent over the last six to nine months.
On the upcoming MATTA fair from Sept 4 to 6 at PWTC, he said the association targeted 100,000 visitors.
