How will the nation’s travel agencies cope with the change? In this episode, we speak to Aaishah Bohari, Projects & Commercial Director, Ab & Artho Tourism Marketing & PR; Gregory Gubiani, Chairman, Marriott Business Council Malaysia and General Manager, The Westin Kuala Lumpur; and Zahira Tahir, CEO & Founder Universal Holidays Travel & Tourism.
