SINGAPORE’S tourism industry, though not yet at pre-pandemic levels, is expected to continue its recovery into the new year.

With leisure travel still regaining ground in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, the business travel and meetings, incentives, conventions and exhibitions (BT-Mice) segment is expected to do the heavy lifting.

Kwee Wei-Lin, president of the Singapore Hotel Association (SHA), told The Business Times (BT) that the sector is expected to cap the year “on a positive note”.
