Maldives has seen a major drop of arrival numbers due to temporary suspension of tourists from South Asian destinations. What’s your opinion on lifting the suspension with extra measures?

Do you believe that Homestay Tourism would benefit the Maldives Tourism Industry and support it in terms of growth? Or would it pose a challenge for small and medium tourism sectors, most of whom have barely survived during the initial pandemic with the stimulus packages, loans and moratoriums?

Do you believe that the Addendum to the Tourism Act with the mandatory service charge aimed at supporting the tourism industry employees will affect the industry in increasing the number of visitors? How will this bring a positive impact in terms of service and job satisfaction?
