Dato’ Seri Amirudin bin Shari. “Throughout these two decades, Tourism Selangor’s initiatives in constantly discovering new tourism places, as well as promoting interesting tourism attractions with qualities such as cultural diversity has brought success to the State. In 2019, Selangor managed to attract a staggering 30 million tourists which certainly imposed a positive impact on the State’s economy, particularly its tourism industry. “Covid-19 has severely-impacted the industry. However, in bracing for the impact, Selangor’s several comprehensive Economic Plans such as Kita Selangor Package 1.0 and Kita Selangor Package 2.0 include financial aid allocation by Selangor State Government for its tourism industry. In conjunction with Tourism Selangor’s 20th Anniversary, let us all stay resilient in overcoming obstacles and challenges towards becoming a preferred and premier tourism destination, not only domestically, but also internationally. Happy 20th Anniversary, Tourism Selangor,” stated Y.A.B. Dato’ Seri Amirudin bin Shari in the video.
