#4 Handicrafts Shopping will be possible at hotels
Every handicraft has a story to tell and is unique. To further encourage the tourism sector to prioritize local handicrafts, the Government proposed a special tax deduction for hotels that purchase local handicraft products with a minimum amount of 500 thousand ringgit. We hope that the handicraft’s price will not be hefty after being placed in the hotel. Amin!
