Tourism industry is badly affected by the pandemic outbreak since 2020 and the industry is now in the recovery and revitalising phase. Innovative collaboration between the governemnt and private sector is vital to ensure that the recovery plan that has been outlined by the Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture (MOTAC) can be realised by collaboration with Tourism Productivity Nexus. The gap between the government and industry must be addressed, and MOTAC realised that digitalisation in the tourism industry must take place to ensure business sustainability this will improve productivity.
Based on the discussion between TPN, MPC and MOTAC on 9 January 2022, TPN and MPC has agreed to organise strategic sessions to develop TPN’s implementation plans for programmes and activities in 2022. Two (2) strategic sessions  will be organised in February and March 2022 with new members of Nexus Governing Committee (NGC) and newly established Working Groups (WG) (Refer Appendix 3) for the term 2022 – 2023.
Objectives of the programme:
1.	To identify pain point in tourism industry and strategise for process, products and business improvement; 
2.	To identify main factor / indicator in tourism industry that could boost its productivity; and
3.	To strategise and develop TPN’s implementation plan for 2022 and beyond.
