Tiong admits error in not informing event was handled by private sector

PARLIAMENT | Tourism, Arts and Culture Minister Tiong King Sing has acknowledged that he erred in not informing that Tourism Malaysia’s Global Travel Meet event on Oct 1 was handled by the private sector, not the government.

This, he said, had contributed to the misunderstanding which led the public to think that Tourism Malaysia had organised the event, which drew criticism over the serving of alcohol.
