Some news on the travel front, one I wish to share here on this small space of mine. Living in Selangor, I'm always intrigued by efforts to promote local travels. The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signing ceremony held earlier today between Tourism Selangor and Tourplus Technology Sdn Bhd (Tourplus) marked yet another milestone for Tourism Selangor; in-line with its vision in gearing up towards “Tourism 4.0” and tourism digitalization.
