Semporna: People here have been urged to get involved in the homestay business which has been attracting more tourists to the State lately. Semporna Umno Information Chief Dato Razak Tun Sakaran said that most tourists who visited the State would opt for homestays that allowed them to understand the various cultures in Sabah.

"The Semporna district has attracted lots of tourists from inside and outside Sabah due to the beauty of the islands as well as the annual Regatta Lepa festival.

"Therefore the people especially Umno members are encouraged to be involved in the business or even domestic tourism sector that has the potential to increase their income and profit," he said when launching the Membara programme at the district library here, Friday.

He also advised those who want to get involved in the business to be hardworking and to learn from successful individuals by attending seminars or courses related to the field. Razak said he believed that tourists from all over the world will come given the quality services which had been offered to them.

He also urged all Umno members to develop a co-operative for the domestic tourism sector to enhance their income and gain more profit. According to him, the government had provided various initiatives to those involved in the sector in terms of loans and members should grab the opportunity that had been given to them.
