JOHOR BARU: Despite the opening of the worldwide borders and the a number of hundred thousand vacationers coming into the nation over the past 10 days, there have been few international guests to Johor’s national parks.
Johor National Parks Corporation (PTNJ) director Hanis Musalman Salehan mentioned that previous to the border closure some two years in the past, ecotourism within the state was successful, particularly amongst foreigners.
“The Pulau Kukup National Park and Tanjung Piai National Park were some of the more popular places for nature lovers from around the world and Singapore.
“Both parks are very accessible to Singaporeans,” he mentioned.
Hanis Musalman mentioned there may very well be many causes for the dearth of vacationers on the national parks together with the Covid-19 commonplace working process (SOP).
“Another factor is the Ramadan month. Also, there are no long public holidays in Singapore during this period,” he mentioned.
