Based on surveys conducted with around 1,000 tourism-related small and medium enterprises in various parts of the country in April 2021, the report found that 47 percent of tourism-related enterprises had ceased their operations since the beginning of the pandemic. Just 22 percent of businesses said that their operations were unchanged from before the arrival of COVID-19.
