The COVID-19 pandemic that hit the country since early last year affected many sectors in Malaysia, especially tourism & F&B related industries.
The various measures implemented by the government in helping affected industries, in addition to initiatives to increase consumers' purchasing power, have helped revive certain sectors of the domestic economy.
