ROMPIN: A popular resort in Tioman Island, Salang Pusaka Resort here has been turned into a COVID-19 vaccination centre (PPV) for over 90 residents of Kampung Salang who are eligible to receive the vaccine.
Resort director Abdul Khalid Mohamad said he was approached by officers from the Tioman Development Authority (TDA) about three weeks ago, to seek permission to use the resort he had operated since 1991 as a PPV.
“They said the place is suitable as it is located not far from the jetty and at the centre of the village, besides having a seminar hall and a relatively large compound to accommodate the people.
