PUTRAJAYA – The government will channel financial assistance of RM3,000 to licenced tourism agencies under the Tourism, Arts and Culture Ministry (Motac) through the National People's Well-Being and Economic Recovery Package (Pemulih).

This is the second time such assistance has been given to registered tourism agencies, after the first one under the Strategic Programme to Empower the People and the Economy (Pemerkasa).

Motac, in a statement today, said those who had received the RM3,000 assistance under the Pemerkasa initiative are automatically eligible for the Pemulih aid and are not required to make new applications.

“Motac calls on all licenced tourism companies under the ministry that have never received financial assistance under the Pemerkasa initiative to take this opportunity to submit applications to us,” it said.

The closing date for applications is October 15.

For more information on eligibility requirements, visit Motac’s official website or contact the nearest state Motac office. – Bernama, September 27, 2021
