¶ 01 My second supplementary: I seek the Government’s concrete timeframe and measures to promote tourism nationally. Demand has grown, but supply-side facilities lag. Earlier there were refinance loan schemes for hotel developers, now absent. What time-bound steps are you taking to develop the industry and support new entrants?
