Tourism sector calls for more gov’t support
Tue, 26 January 2021
The Cambodia Association of Travel Agents (CATA) called on the government to take urgent measures to rescue the tourism sector after 3,000 tourism enterprises closed due to the ongoing Covid-19 crisis.
CATA president Chhay Sivlin said that up until recently, even closed businesses sought to retain their professional staff in order to recover quickly once the Covid-19 situation improved because it was difficult to find experts in the field.
She said some owners were injecting capital into their shuttered tourism businesses to retain their staff, but the crisis has lasted too long. Now many businesses have been forced to dismiss them.
