How much do I have to pay to visit Malaysia from September?

At present, most of the countries that collect tourism tax are rich in tourism resources. Although the cost of a few to several tens of RMB per night is only nine Niu Yi cents compared with the cost of the whole trip, in some people's view, this extra charge is unreasonable.

Miss Li, who just returned from a trip to Malaysia, said, "I think it's acceptable to pay 15 or 16 yuan a night. The group I just joined is a high-end tour. Actually, I don't care much about this fare increase, but I still can't

accept it psychologically. After all, when going to Southeast Asian countries to play, many people value affordable prices, and many middle-and low-end groups always cost thousands of dollars. If you have to pay more, I am afraid that no one is comfortable. "

Mr. Wang, the tour guide, also doesn't support Malaysia to levy a tourism tax. He told reporters: "This will discourage tourists from going to Malaysia. Maybe they will choose to go to other Southeast Asian countries because of the tax increase. Of course, this also increases the cost of our travel agency. "

Some local hoteliers and travel agencies in Malaysia also oppose taxation. They expressed their concern to the government that the imposition of tourism tax would scare away price-sensitive tourists and force them to choose other places for sightseeing, which would ultimately harm the interests of hotels and travel agencies. Teo Chiang

Hong, chairman of the Malaysian Hotel Owners Association, told the local media: "We are concerned about the impact of the implementation of the policy on tourists who travel for a long time. The longer they stay in Malaysia, the more taxes they have to pay, which will hit the positive nature of their in-depth tourism. "

He added that some hotels may change their room rates or operating modes as a result. "However, these measures will lead to a lower occupancy rate. If fewer tourists come, the government will not levy taxes, which is counterproductive."

According to the report of Malaysia's Sin Chew Net, after the implementation of the tourism tax on September 1st, some hotels refused to pay the tax, and some guests even quarreled with the hotel for this reason. Wang Meiqi, Chairman of the Malaysian Hotel Association Perak < P > State Branch, pointed out that after the implementation of the tourism tax, some guests did complain, and some tourists decided to leave immediately after learning that they had to pay the tax when they checked in. There are also some guests who call to inquire about the reservation details, and they hear that they have to pay the tax of RM p>1 every night, saying that they have reconsidered and have not called back. "The tourist tax is not a one-off tax, but it is charged every night. Foreign tourists usually come for several days, and it is not a small sum after accumulation." Wang Meiqi

said.

rich people don't care.
