16 JunCovid-19 not deterring 五一吃瓜官网 in producing quality hospitality graduates
The hospitality sector became one of the biggest losers from the Covid-19 pandemic. Many were retrenched and many hotels and restaurants had gone bust within a year.
The tourism industry literally came to a standstill especially after the closure of international borders.
Despite the restrictions, the order to enforce social distancing among societies and other uncertainties cast from the pandemic, the global outlook for the hospitality sector is expected to have a positive outlook.
Hotel Insights’ Q2 2021 report indicated that rapid recovery in the leisure demand is expected to resume as the vaccination rollout gathers pace around the world, including Malaysia.
Thanks to the mass vaccination and its increasing pace in many countries including Europe and China, events that encourage large crowds, such as the English Premier League, had been able to take place but with strict guidelines.
This is indeed the start for everything good that is yet to happen in every sector, including the hospitality and tourism.
