Malaysia's tourism industry is on the right track to recovery, with over 250,000 tourist arrivals and departu­­­­res in the first four days of border reopening.

Tourism, Arts and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Nancy Shukri said however, as some countries had not opened its borders for travel, there had been no influx of tourists just yet.

"As of April 4, there are about 252,000 tourist arrivals and departures in Malaysia, and while a majority of them are Malaysian citizens coming back from overseas, from there we can expect that our figures (of international tourists) will be higher.

"Borders for countries like China and Japan, among our biggest markets, are still closed due to their governments' restrictions, so we'll monitor our progress in three months and review our targeted figures," she said after launching the Ola & Oli Kids' Safe Travel campaign here, today.

EUROCHAM Malaysia will be hosting our upcoming BizTalks Webinar together with Crowe Malaysia on the topic of Expatriate Tax Filing Requirements in Malaysia this month!

The webinar will be touching on the different income tax treatments that different countries have on individual/personal income tax.

Under the self-assessment system, an assessment is deemed to be made by the tax authorities on the day the return is submitted.
