The Maldives reopens borders for tourism

The contribution tourism industry has on the GDP of the Maldives accounts for 39.6%. The island nation received zero tourists due to the COVID -19 outbreak and this was indeed a huge threat to the country’s economy as a whole. But, since the country is now managing the situations, they have decided to reopen its borders for tourism and expect things will have a gradual growth once it’s done.

Best resorts in Maldives owned by popular hospitality chains the likes of Park Hotel Group also have restarted their operations, and with flights starting to commence their air schedules, they will receive more and more foreign guests in the time to come. However, every procedure will be strictly monitored by the public health officials of the country and this will reassure the trust of the travellers who come to the Maldives.
