The COVID-19 pandemic that hit the country since early last year affected many sectors in Malaysia, especially tourism & F&B related industries.

The various measures implemented by the government in helping affected industries, in addition to initiatives to increase consumers' purchasing power, have helped revive certain sectors of the domestic economy.

As soon as the first Movement Control Order (MCO) ended, we saw Malaysians taking the opportunity to spend time outside after being forced to stay home for a long time. People thronged restaurants, cafes and mamaks. Many went took the chance to explore local tourists spots in the country. 

It is therefore imperative that operators of hotels, restaurants and related industries prepared to enhance entertainment experience offerings for their customers, as we soon emerge from a second MCO where consumer confidence picks up again.

To help businesses enhance their in-store customer experience, Astro Business is now introducing the Astro package for business, the best and most worthwhile Flexi Pack!
